The Victorian Education Excellence Awards recognise the inspirational teachers, principals, business managers and education support staff who improve schools and support children and young people to develop the skills, courage, and curiosity they need to succeed in life.
You can nominate yourself or your colleagues to win professional learning grants of up to $25,000 to support your work in schools. The winners of each award category will also be eligible to win Victoria’s top public education prize – the Lindsay Thompson Award for Excellence in Education and a further $20,000 grant.
We want to hear about the outstanding work in your school. Share how you or a colleague engage your students in learning or work as a team to improve student learning and wellbeing outcomes. If you’re a principal, share your school improvement story and, if you work in education support, share how you connect students to their school and community.
Nominations close on Monday 19 May 2025 at 11:59 pm.
Winners will be announced at a presentation ceremony on Friday 24 October 2025.
Information on who can nominate as well as tips and how to nominate will be available soon.
