Minister for Education, James Merlino, congratulated teachers, principals, school administrative and department staff at the Department of Education and Training’s Recognition of Service ceremony at the Grand Hyatt in Melbourne.
He said: “Everyone remembers an inspiring teacher, educator or principal who inspired passions or offered support to reach their full potential. These award recipients have dedicated their careers to public education, helping thousands of students and multiple generations of Victorians, over many decades.”
The total of 408 recipients have devoted more than 17,000 combined years to teaching. During this time, they have led progress in education and helped young people to thrive through learning and educational opportunities.
We are building a world-class education system with exceptional teachers, principals, education support staff and departmental staff.
The state says it is investing $30.9 million in teachers, including professional development, learning and other initiatives, to ensure that they are supported to have great careers in the Education State.
