SOEL Educators Experience…

Working for Recognised Industry Leaders

SOEL has a commitment to high-quality, challenging, internationally grounded, play-based education that we believe is the most important thing for our children.

We actively seek recognition and validation for all of our staff.

Becoming part of a Family Run Business

Children have always been at the heart of what we do, ever since we opened our first centre in 1974.

Our philosophy and practice is influenced by the Municipal Schools of Reggio Emilia, Rudolf Steiner and Maria Montessori, as well as our own observations and interactions.

Working with the Best

Work alongside passionate and like-minded individuals who live and breathe pedagogical development in a truly collaborative manner with children’s best interests always being the focus.

Meaningful Learning Environments

We know that the environment is the third teacher – so our learning environments are all intentionally designed to facilitate children’s sense of agency, stimulate their imagination and creativity, and give them a place to explore, discover, express themselves, learn and grow.

What a real Atelier space is all about

All of our centres have dedicated Studio spaces incorporated into their design. Children’s skills and abilities in drawing, painting, clay work, textiles and multi-media are facilitated by Fine Art Degree Qualified educators working collaboratively with you.

Team Support

We support and value our educators’ ongoing professional learning. Team Meetings for every room are held away from the children, inside work hours and are attended by Managers, Studio and Pedagogical Co-ordinators.

As a SOEL employee you will be exposed to ongoing professional development opportunities including monthly in-house training that will help you grow as a professional and reflect on your own practice.

We value this training enough to pay you for it and supply a meal.
