Angela Phillips wins the NEiTA Leadership Award 2024
We are thrilled to congratulate Angela Phillips, Director of Teaching: Pedagogy and Digital Delivery, on receiving the international NEiTA 2024 Leadership Award at the NEiTA Award Ceremony on Friday 15 November.
The NEiTA Leadership Award recognition highlights Angela's exceptional dedication to education, and to her role in leading and advancing excellence in education at Westminster School.
NEiTA is the longest running, community-based awards program which recognises teaching excellence in Australia and New Zealand, with the award ceremony also celebrating the organisation's 30th anniversary.
Angela joined Westminster’s Senior School in 2013 and has a passion for providing educators with professional development and pedagogy opportunities. This is evident through her work with Westminster School’s HALT and Early Career Teacher program, which she introduced to the School after undertaking certification herself in 2019.
Westminster School’s HALT program provides a framework for teachers to gain certification as Highly Accomplished and Lead Teachers, bolstering leadership skills and encouraging career growth. The program encourages continuous professional growth, with educators looking to seek and act on student and colleague feedback, as well as innovative educational research.
Angela is honoured and grateful for the recognition of the NEiTA Leadership Award and looks forward to continuing to work with the wonderful educators at Westminster School, driving their development and allowing them to excel as both educators and leaders.
