We are very proud to announce nominations for the inaugural 2018 ACHPER Victoria Teacher Awards are now open! These very important awards recognise teachers who are undertaking excellent practice in Health and Physical Education. These awards have been a long time coming, and we are thrilled to bring more of the exceptional work in Victorian schools to the attention of the broader education, health and physical activity sector.
By nominating yourself or a colleague you are helping to shine the light more brightly on this important learning area of Health and Physical Education which focuses on students enhancing their own and others’ health, safety, wellbeing and physical activity.
We have introduced four awards this year, two for each category as follows:
ACHPER Victoria HPE Teacher of the Year (Primary F-6) | ACHPER Victoria HPE Teacher of the Year (Secondary 7-12)
These awards are open to currently practising (part or full time) primary and secondary teachers in Victorian schools. It is expected nominees have more than 4 years teaching experience aligned with ACHPER’s areas of focus being health education, physical education, recreation and outdoor education
Nominees must demonstrate excellence in relation to their professional knowledge, practice, innovation and engagement in the teaching of physical education, health education, and/or outdoor education.
ACHPER Victoria Innovative Program (Primary F-6) | ACHPER Victoria Innovative Program (Secondary 7-12)
This award is open to any Victorian primary school or secondary school demonstrating overall excellence in the following criteria as it relates to Health and Physical Education. The school must have at least one member of staff who is a current ACHPER member.
The program does not necessarily have to comprise the entire Health and Physical Education curriculum but may focus on one or more parts of it. The program should be original and innovative in approach and have completed at least one full cycle of implementation, including evaluation, to be considered.
A program might be something developed across the entire school or focus on one, or two, year levels or possibly across a group of schools within a network. It might be focused on a particular target group of students or on a specific aspect of the HPE curriculum e.g. swimming, sedentary behaviour, SEPEP etc.
