Our Mission, Vision & Values
In Australia, the postcode you’re born in can radically impact your whole future. It shouldn’t.

In Australia, the postcode that you’re born in can radically impact your whole future – determining the type of education you can access. Too many young people are left behind: set up for lives of disadvantage instead of lives of opportunity. It’s not their choice; and it isn’t their fault.

Together, we can do something about it.

To grow a community of leaders committed to equity for children, by recruiting and developing exceptional people to teach and lead across Australia.

An Australia where education gives every child greater choice for their future.

TFA exists to pursue equity in education for every child. Our values keep us grounded in the things that matter most – they define who we are and how we operate. They are our filter for making decisions and working together as we advance our purpose and bring our strategy to life
