80 students from Dobroyd Point PS, Strathfield North PS, Summer Hill PS, & Rozelle PS participated in a Ukulele Workshop Day. 9 teachers helped students learn to play 5 songs that they performed onstage for parents & carers. A wonderful collaboration across schools!

Back to my stomping grounds @SummerHill_PS today to be interviewed by students for an upcoming video. Alvin, Charis, Maisy & Finlay asked me some great questions about education & my time at Summer Hill. Great to connect with Natalie & staff to wish them well for the term ahead.

Since April, nearly 5,500 temporary teachers & support staff across NSW have accepted offers of permanent employment. The reaction has been extraordinary. I heard from Anthony & Chandani, @merrylandshs staff, who are thrilled with being offered permanency. education.nsw.gov.au/news/la…

From 29 Nov, we are improving the Proficient Teacher (PT) accreditation process. Accreditation Supervisors will no longer need to write a supervisor report, and will instead declare whether a teacher’s practice meets the PT Standards. More info: bit.ly/3WRqCEY
