The Languages and Culture team (Secondary Education – Learning and Teaching Directorate) would like to strengthen our ties with existing language teacher networks, and support teachers in establishing new networks.
Networks are a vital component of teacher professional learning and support, and strengthen links between state office and schools.
We are aware of the following network groups: Dubbo, Bellingen/Coffs Harbour, Illawarra, Riverina, Western Sydney, South Western Sydney, Nirimba. (Thank you to network leaders for already providing an update to us about your work.)
However, there may be other network groups, formal or informal, of which we are not aware.
If you organise a languages network not listed above, please email darlene.knowles@det.nsw.edu.au
Alternatively, if you would like to set up a new network in your area, please email darlene.knowles@det.nsw.edu.au
Action required by: 15 September 2017
