As we begin Term 2, I want to extend a warm welcome back to you all.
With learning well underway for children and young people in schools and learning communities across Australia, Term 2 is a great time to reflect on areas of your own teaching practice or leadership that you would like to develop. To help you, we’ve curated a collection of amazing resources around the theme Ignite in 2025, designed to support you as you reflect, plan and grow.
Term 2 is also that time we host the HALT Summit, taking place on 8 and 9 May. For those already recognised as Highly Accomplished or Lead teachers, and for those aspiring to be, the Summit is an inspiring and thought-provoking opportunity to connect with leading thinkers, encounter new ideas and to develop skills to lead and inspire colleagues. I am excited to be attending my first Summit and I look forward to sharing my thoughts and reflections with you soon.
And in today’s AITSL Mail, we launch our AITSL 2025 Survey – where we want you to tell us what’s working, what’s not, and how we can better support you in your work. Your insights are confidential and incredibly valuable and will help guide AITSL’s work to benefit the incredible work you are doing in our schools and for our children and young people every day. So please, grab a cuppa, take 5 minutes and share your thoughts with us. We’d really love to hear from you.
Here’s to a great Term 2 and to igniting your practice in 2025.
Thank you for the difference you make.
Warm regards,
Tim Bullard, Chief Executive Officer, AITSL
