Cultural & Linguistic Diversity at Teach For Australia

Our commitment to educational equity demands that we be a culturally safe and inclusive organisation and an advocate for systemic fairness. 

 We are proud of the diversity of our cohorts: the most recent Leadership Development Program is made up of Associates from 35 different cultural backgrounds; 44% were the first in their family to graduate from University; and 40% are from regional or remote communities. 

 We are committed to recruiting diverse Associates, with diverse life experiences, who reflect the communities in which we work. 

 At Teach For Australia, we also commit to deeply listening to and having authentic relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples – children, communities and organisations – in service of an education that celebrates their unique identity and strength, and empowers them to thrive.  

 In doing so, we co-create an Australia that honours us all.
