Pre-application

Look through the FED website, see our school’s stories and results. We encourage you to connect with any of our schools or mentors to learn more about the program. See the schools presently involved in the program here, Meet our Schools.

Register your interest here or by contacting the Fogarty EDvance team. Once you are in contact, the team can discuss the program and the application process. Reaching out does not commit you to anything at this point in the process!

Transformation Framework Workshop

Once you’ve registered your expression of interest, we’ll invite you to join us for a Transformation Framework workshop.  This workshop introduces school leadership teams to the EDvance School Transformation Framework. Attendance of the leadership team is required for all metro schools (by discussion for regional schools).  There will be two metro based sessions, 9th September or 11th of September.   Details will follow expressions of interest.

Applications

Once schools have spoken with the Fogarty EDvance team and secured interest from the Leadership and School Teams, formal applications can be found here and are to be submitted to daniella.hassett@fogartyedvance.org.au.   Applications will close 13th of September 2019.

Interviews and selection process

Applicants will be invited for a 45 minute phone  interview. This conversation will help us determine you and your school’s readiness to lead your school improvement journey. We are happy to discuss with you the selection process based around your team’s readiness, willingness and ability to drive change in your school.
