Teach For Australia is an ambitious social movement working to confront educational disadvantage in Australia, an urgent social problem which every year, places more and more Australian kids at risk of missing out on a future they deserve. Together, we can make educational equity a reality for every Australian child.
Your donation will help enable us to deliver 275 high-calibre teachers in disadvantaged secondary schools around Australia over the next 3 years, positively impacting more than 48,400 vulnerable children.
OUR VISION
Our vision is of an Australia where all children, regardless of background or social circumstance, are given the best chance in life through an excellent education.
OUR MISSION
We help do this by transforming outstanding individuals into exceptional teachers and inspirational leaders, who will help change the lives of their students, and become future change makers in Australian education.
CHANGING LIVES IN THE CLASSROOM
Teach For Australia recruits and trains inspiring and passionate young Australians to teach in disadvantaged communities for a minimum of two years, where they have a life changing impact on their students. Our rigorous recruitment model, coupled with our award winning training and leadership program, supports participants to be highly effective teachers who can inspire students to achieve.
LEADING SYSTEMIC CHANGE
Teach For Australia also supports participants to be lifelong leaders of education change.
We are building a pipeline of influencers who will move into all walks of life - in classrooms, government, boardrooms and charities - who are passionate and knowledgeable about educational disadvantage. This movement of dedicated changemakers across all sectors, will help drive the systemic change needed to eliminate educational disadvantage in Australia.
