Partner with us

Join us in transforming teacher education.

We work in partnership with schools and local communities to ensure that quality teachers are placed where they are needed; in hard-to-staff, low socio-economic and culturally diverse schools across Victoria and New South Wales.

Nexus students are matched with a Nexus partner school and get paid to work while they complete a Master of Teaching (Secondary) (Victoria) or Master of Teaching (Primary) (Victoria and NSW), which means they graduate with extensive professional experience.

Our program is delivered by academic staff who specialise in diversity and inclusion– offering partners the opportunity to recruit high performing future teachers with diverse backgrounds.

Nexus graduates are:

• Career-ready, with 84 per cent of our 2022 graduates saying they felt either prepared or very prepared to enter the teaching profession.
• More likely to stay in the teaching profession. Eighty-nine per cent of our 2022 graduates have continued teaching in schools with an ICSEA < 1000, 65 per cent have remained in their Nexus school and 24 per cent have secured employment in another Nexus school upon graduation.

Nexus is delivered as part of the High Achieving Teachers Program with the support of the Australian Government Department of Education.
