Celebrating and saying ThankQ to Queensland’s school support staff

It can be easy to overlook the crucial role all school support staff at state school’s across Queensland perform. But it’s important to remember that without these workers to help facilitate teaching and learning, education would not happen.

School Support Staff Recognition Week takes place from 7-11 September this year and is an opportunity to acknowledge the essential work done by these important workers.

A whole range of employees help the Department of Education facilitate the teaching and learning of students across the state.

We are inviting teachers, parents and other school support workers to nominate a schools officer, administration officer, science technician, school business manager, agricultural assistant or an IT technician, to name a few, for the important work they do. They will go into the running to win one of seven $1,000 prize packs for their school and a $200 voucher for the individual winner.¹
