Nominate a deserving educator

17Mar

If you know a teacher, leader or support staff who goes above and beyond nominate them for the 2016 Excellence in Public Education Awards.

Member for Stuart, Dan van Holst Pellekaan MP, has seen first-hand how educators in the electorate work hard to teach and inspire their students to be the best they can be.

“With 52 public schools and pre-schools in the electorate of Stuart, there is no doubt a large number of educators who are deserving recipients of these prestigious awards,” he said.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for students, parents and staff to nominate someone who you believe deserves to be recognised and thanked for going that extra mile to help children with their education.”

There are seven award categories. Nominees will receive a certificate and an invitation to apply for an overall award.

Overall winners will be announced at an award ceremony at the National Wine Centre on Friday, 14 October 2016. Winners will receive funding for their choice of professional development activity to undertake during 2017.
