The VicTESOL Committee has notified ACTA of its decision to resign VicTESOL’s membership.   The Committee has taken this difficult decision as the activities and requirements of ACTA membership are not in line with VicTESOL’s current resourcing priorities. VicTESOL will continue working hard for its members, responding to the needs of EAL teachers from all levels.  We will also seek to maintain our relationships with other TESOL associations, state and national, to ensure continued collaboration, advocacy and resource sharing for the benefit of our VicTESOL members and the communities we serve.

Applications for the Penny McKay Memorial Award are now open.

The Award honours the contribution to research and development in second/additional language education of Dr Penny McKay (1948-2009).

Electronic copies of the applications for the Award are due by midnight, 31 October of the calendar year following the submission of the thesis to the Chair of the Selection Panel, Prof Chris Davison, c.davison@unsw.edu.au.

More information is available below.

Please see below ACTA’s response to the Better and Fairer Education System consultation paper.  It is hoped the response will be useful in shaping the forthcoming National School Reform Agreement, which has the potential to turn the tide by including EAL/D learners within fair and equitable school provision.
