This is an especially tough time and schools and early childhood services are very much the centre of local communities. I want to acknowledge that communities across Australia are currently suffering as a result of extreme weather and bushfires. Please stay safe and take care. You and your community are in our thoughts. – Mark Grant, CEO

Whether you're still completing your studies, or a beginning teacher, we've got you covered with the new and improved My Induction app. The app includes expert advice and interactive activities to help you start your teaching career.
Supporting relief teachers' access to professional learning
Throughout their education, students spend up to one cumulative year with casual relief teachers. How do we ensure they get the same opportunities to develop and grow?
As a nation, we don’t currently have a clear picture of the teaching workforce. What is the retention rate of teachers in the first five years? Where are there shortages in specialisation? The Australian Teacher Workforce Data (ATWD) initiative will help answer these questions.
Implementing an Indigenous language program - coming soon
As part of the International Year of Indigenous Languages, we are putting together a series of new Illustrations of Practice. Join us on social media to find out when these resources will be available.
