Early Career Teacher Development team

Access key resources, build professional networks and strengthen your expertise as you begin your teaching career. With mentoring and targeted professional learning, you’ll be supported to confidently transition to the proficient career stage of the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers.

My mentor has been the most amazing support for me specifically in my first year, catering for a very complex class in a year level I was not confident in. She supported me to complete my portfolio. I’ve continued to utilise her support.
