Educator and Teacher support program
Monthly support programs for Teachers and Education Leaders help build strong professional cultures of teaching in our centres. Every educator is dedicated to improving their own teaching and, in turn, the education and care for each child. There are two support programs:
-
- Teachers@Guardian
-
- EdLeaders@Guardian
These monthly meetings support your professional development and create a vibrant support network and professional learning community for our centre Teams. All teachers and Ed Leaders are encouraged to attend (or review the meeting recordings) through non-contact time. In addition, Teachers are supported through the accreditation process in their state or territory.
Peer Meetings
We meet regularly at Guardian to share knowledge and information about what we are achieving in our Centre.
