More than 870 students and 50 educators have been assisted with PEF scholarships since our scholarship program commenced in 2012. In the last year the Foundation was able to increase its funding of scholarships by an impressive 29 percent. A visit to our website shows how life-changing our scholarships have been, with student stories that are typical of those now pursuing further studies and embarking on careers that may not have been possible without the generous support of our donors and sponsors. In collaboration with other scholarship-based organisations such as the Harding Miller Foundation we have seen scholarship support for students in public schools increase to record levels.

Chair, Public Education Foundation 2 PUBLIC EDUCATION FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT 2016–17 Executive Director Report It is my pleasure to present the Public Education Foundation’s Annual Report for 2016-17. It’s been a record year for the Foundation on many fronts. Over the course of the year, we awarded new scholarships to 282 students and nine educators, and provided continuing support to a further 45 students on multi-year scholarships. The total of 336 recipients is our highest ever, up 23% from last year. The total value of our awards was also our highest ever $507,328, a 29% increase on 2015-16. We offered scholarships at 143 schools across six states and territories, compared with 97 recipient schools in four states and territories last year. Equally importantly, the Foundation established important new relationships, allowing us to work together with aligned organisations to deepen our support for the public education community. We were delighted to welcome two new Premium Partners this year, First State Super and Teachers Health. Each of these organisations is generously supporting a new scholarship for teachers which will be awarded in 2017-18. This will be the first time the Foundation has offered teacher scholarships, and we’re hopeful we can further extend our support to our hugely deserving teacher community in future. three year strategic plan.

    Spring Edition – No: 48 2015 Commonwealth Vocational Education Scholarship 2015. I was awarded with the Premier Teaching Scholarship in Vocational Education and Training for 2015. The purpose of this study tour is to analyse and compare the Vocational Education and Training (Agriculture/Horticulture/Primary Industries) programs offered to school students in the USA in comparison to Australia and how these articulate or prepare students for post school vocational education and training. I will be travelling to the USA in January 2016 for five weeks. While there, I will visit schools, farms and also attend the Colorado Agriculture Teachers Conference on 29-30th January 2016. I am happy to send a detailed report of my experiences and share what I gained during this study tour with all Agriculture teachers out there. On the 29th of August I went to Sydney Parliament house where I was presented with an award by the Minister of Education Adrian Piccoli.
