Announced by the WA Minister for Education and Training Sue Ellery, the WA Education Awards are an important opportunity to reflect on the work of principals, teachers and wider school communities supporting the education of students across the state.

Kinetic IT’s Acting Chief Marketing Officer Aran Collins says The LIFT Alliance is proud to support the celebration of WA public schooling excellence.

“On behalf of The LIFT Alliance, I wish all nominating schools the best of luck in this year’s WA Education Awards. The awards are iconic and an opportunity to recognise the outstanding work school communities carry out every day for children, no matter whether you’re delivering education in the Perth metropolitan area, or in a rural or remote community school.

“Thank you to The LIFT Alliance partners and the Department for partnering with us on this year’s awards. I know all of our organisations are looking forward to the inspiring stories that will be unearthed, and celebrating educators for the critical work they do for students.”

Nominations for the WA Education Awards are open now until Monday, 15 August 2022.
