Ready to make an impact? Come and teach with us to make a difference in the classroom from day one. Help fight education inequity.

We take into consideration your personal circumstances to match you with a suitable partner school. Flexibility on your location preferences does increase your chances of placement.
About the ProgramBe the change you want to see
It’s a sad reality that not every child in Australia has access to the education they deserve. Children from the lowest-income households are on average three years behind in school by the time they’re 15. We want to fight educational inequity – and make sure that any student who wants to learn can get access to world-class teachers. And we do that through people like you.
By working with Teach for Australia, you’ll be creating the change you want to see in the world – addressing social injustice around educational inequity while inspiring the next generation of students.
Our award-winning Leadership Development Program means you’ll work as a teacher in secondary school-level classes ranging from Year 7 to Year 12. You’ll get a full salary and benefits for two years, while also studying for a Master’s degree and receiving one-on-one coaching and mentoring.
Teaching to LeadYou’ll be teaching in subject areas that are directly related to your previous studies – whether you’ve just graduated or are more than 10 years out – and you’ll become part of a dedicated community committed to tackling educational inequity.
It’s not just the students who’ll benefit from your impact; you’ll develop and hone your leadership skills on a personal, professional, and academic level. And after two years in the program, you’ll be an exceptional leader set up for contributing to society and the broader community. Your Teach for Australia experience will be a life-changing one.
Program StructureOur 2-year program is made up of several components to make sure you’re well-supported and set up for success.
National Initial Intensive
Our program kicks off in November 2024 with a 6-week residential training program. It will fast-track you to prepare for and give you the foundations for entering the classroom. It’s here you’ll complete a portion of your Master’s and get to connect with peers from within your cohort and beyond.
Teaching & leadership development
Once you begin teaching in 2024, you’ll develop your teaching and leadership skills throughout the program through first-hand teaching experience, continuing your Master’s and one-on-one coaching and mentoring.
Earning your Master of Teaching
Delivered in partnership with ACU and embedded within the program. Associates will complete a nationally accredited and internationally recognised Master of Teaching (Secondary) (Leading Learning) in 2025. You’ll already be changing lives for the better by this time too
Salary and Assisted Scholarship
Earn a full salary while you learn
You’ll earn while you learn too. Associates’ salaries are easily comparable to other graduate teachers and increase with experience and progression.
During the program, Associates are employed and paid by the relevant government department of education or school. So do keep in mind that salaries and other employment conditions will vary depending on the state, and territory of placement you teach in.
Most program costs are covered by Teach For Australia, in partnership with the Australian Government, on an assisted scholarship. But you will need to contribute a portion towards your Master’s degree, and there’s usually access to FEE-HELP for these payments available (eligibility requirements apply).
