About Us

Our vision is of an Australia where education gives every child greater choice for their future.

Our flagship Leadership Development Program sees us partner with schools serving rural, regional, remote and low socio-economic status communities across Australia.

We’re proud that since 2009 we’ve recruited, developed, supported and empowered talented and passionate teachers in hundreds of schools – reaching over 450,000 young people in communities experiencing disadvantage.

Our Future Leaders Program meets the needs of educators in regional and remote contexts, building on their strengths and promoting crucial skills that help schools thrive.

Hear from our Alumni

Here’s what some of our graduates have to say about studying and working with TFA.

It’s been an amazing opportunity because, without it, I simply couldn’t have made that career transition from public servant to teacher.

I worked with students from migrant and refugee backgrounds in a variety of contexts – from Grade 6 Maths to university-level International Law. I’d leave those sessions feeling thrilled with the knowledge and experiences we shared.

BECOME A TFA PARTNER SCHOOL

We want to hear from your school

We’d love your school to partner with us and help fight educational inequity. When you hire a TFA teacher, (called an Associate) they come with subject area expertise, exceptional leadership qualities, an innovation mindset, and genuine enthusiasm, to help to make a positive impact on your students – and your school.
