Teach For Australia

Teach For Australia is committed to developing regional hubs in communities of the highest need. In order to support Associate development and ensure depth of impact in regional communities, Teach For Australia endeavours to place Associates in clusters - either within schools or within communities. One example of such a hub is Horsham in northwest Victoria, where 16 Associates so far have been placed at Horsham College. Currently, 16 Associates and Alumni work at the College, including Alumnus Adam Ross (Cohort 2012) who this year became Acting Assistant Principal. Alumnus Michael Briggs-Miller (Cohort 2010) was also an Acting Assistant Principal at the College until earlier this year when he was appointed Acting Principal of nearby Warracknabeal Secondary College, another Teach For Australia partner school. Looking forward, Teach For Australia aims to increase our reach and impact. We seek to continue to grow in existing communities in the Australian Capital Territory, the Northern Territory, Victoria and Western Australia with continued focus on regional and Indigenous communities and to expand our program nationally into New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia and Tasmania. In order to achieve our vision of an Australia where all children, regardless of background, attain an excellent education, we also seek to serve all students, growing into the primary education sector.
