Improving teacher quality will be the key element in the Federal Government’s efforts to raise the academic performance of Australian students.
On Thursday, Education Minister Alan Tudge launched a review of initial teacher education courses, which he said was the most critical element in arresting declining learning outcomes – particularly in reading, maths, and science.
The six-month review will be conducted by a panel of education experts, led by former Department of Education and Training secretary Lisa Paul.
Malcolm Elliott, president of the Australian Primary Principals Association, Derek Scott, 2019 Australian School Principal of the Year awardee, and Bill Louden, emeritus professor of education at the University of Western Australia, were also appointed as committee members.
