14: Brisbane Catholic Education Employee Reviews

As a school Officer working as a WHSO the pay is frightful. If I worked in head office doing this job I would be paid $50000 more. But we are on very basic wage and bring in $25_28k a year. Most of the schools I work at are great and very friendly and welcoming.

Pros

Most people are great to work with

Cons

If in a school based position, school Officer pay is abominable

Not A Happy Place

Administrative Assistant (Former Employee) - Dutton Park QLD - 21 October 2022

Most of the people are lovely. But not a happy working environment. Used to be a good place to work. It was like having a government position. You felt secure and valued in your job. Not now. And going to work every day not feeling valued or secure in your position makes for a very stressful environment.

Pros

Some really lovely people.

Cons

Very stressful place to work.

Excellent work culture. Staff are treated with respect. I feel like I am a valued member of the team. I learnt more about Catholic Education. The most enjoyable aspect of the job is working with students who love to learn!

Supply Teacher on call

Relief Teacher (Former Employee) - Logan City QLD - 14 August 2018

Very enjoyable to get back into the classroom once again after many years of administrative work. I enjoyed being able to work on the days I choose and the year levels I found most enjoyable. The hardest part of the job was to bring myself up to date with some of the new technology used in today's classroom

Pros

working hours and frindly staff

Teacher (Former Employee) - AU - 14 March 2016

The typical days was very busy preparing work for students. There seemed to be not enough time to complete all the work tasks. The hardest part of the job was dealing with discipline problems. I enjoyed the professional staff.
