2021 School of Education Graduating Teacher and Education Awards

Award winners, Earl-Patten Family and Mr Peter Routley AM

On Thursday, 4 November 2021, 100 guests attended the School of Education's annual awards evening, joining graduate teachers and professional association representatives. The School of Education also welcomed donors who generously support pre-service teachers, including Mr. Peter Routley AM (PH Routley Award) and the Patten Family (Anthony Patten Master of Education Award). The School of Education was proud to acknowledge our outstanding pre-service teachers in various categories. 

This year has been a year of challenges for pre-service teachers and schools across the teaching community because of COVID-19. Feedback from our pre-service teachers tells us about the resilience shown by teachers to ensure their students learning continues despite the challenges and the strength of school communities. 

Among the presentations were the Educators SA World Teachers' Day Award, and Credit Union SA recognised our outstanding graduate teachers, and South Australian Teaching Associations Awards. We thank the support given by the Industry Associations, providing a wealth of knowledge to our final year pre-service teachers as they grow into confident and professional graduate teachers.

Our students head into a rapidly changing teaching environment, and through their degrees, they have gained knowledge, 21st-century skills, and confidence to commence their careers. We wish them all the best for their future teaching careers.
