Our Impact 2023

Educational inequity is the result of multiple complex factors. Teach For Australia chooses to focus on the people within the system. Evidence shows that teaching is the most significant in school factor that can positively affect student achievement. The world’s highest-achieving school systems value teachers and the teaching profession. They uphold quality teaching as a priority in their communities, applying strategies to develop, reward and retain great teachers while recruiting new talent into teaching.

Since 2009, Teach For Australia has led a community of changemakers, dedicated to creating a future of educational equity for Australian children. These leaders make a difference, alongside the other great teachers and leaders in the profession, and help all children have greater choice for their future.

We’re proud of our impact. In the past year alone, we’ve placed 170 new Leadership Development Program Associates in classrooms around the country where they’re needed the most. We have a rigorous intake process and a 91% completion rate, which speaks to the quality of the training, support and coaching we invest in our people. Furthermore, 88% of our Alumni continue to teach or stay in the education sector.
