2022 Individual Winner

2022 Australian Teacher Aide of the Year 

Kerry Walker

Nominated by: Danny Forrest, Principal & Lea Humphrey, Leading Teacher

Congratulations to Kerry Walker, a Student Support Coordinator at Wedderburn P-12 College in Victoria, who is the 2022 Australian Teacher Aide of the Year. Kerry was one of eight finalists competing for this year’s coveted title of Australian Teacher Aide of the Year. 

Kerry has worked at Wedderburn College, a small rural school in the North Central district of Victoria, since 2002, and has been crucial in supporting the inclusion, wellbeing and learning of students from Foundation  through to Year 12, both within the classroom and at home.

"Kerry is dedicated to helping achieve positive outcomes for our students and families, placing a strong emphasis on ensuring minimal barriers and providing opportunities for all within the community. Kerry is a fierce advocate for our most vulnerable children and families and is often seen as the bridge between the school and wider community in maintaining positive, safe connections and relationships. Her student centred and 'person first' approach is unwavering. She is held in very high regard within the wider community and is an invaluable asset to our school." said nominators Danny Forrest, Principal, and Lea Humphrey, Leading Teacher, at Wedderburn P-12 College. 

In her current role, as Student Support Co-ordinator, Kerry works closely with the College's  Wellbeing team, and coordinates Student Support Services visits, and is a member of the College’s School Wide Positive Behaviour Support team and the Respectful Relationships team.

In 2012 Kerry worked to establish the Wedderburn College Playgroup, which focusses on building early literacy skills, and access to support agencies for families with children aged 0-5 years. Kerry's aim was to also reengage vulnerable community members with the College in a fun and positive way, and ease children's transition to school in later years. Over the years, the Playgroup program has grown from 2 families, to a record 54 children and carers attending on a weekly basis.

In 2022, Kerry pushed to have a Centre Against Sexual Assault (CASA) outreach service established at the College, which is unique in rural areas. She has also taken a lead role in initiating several other school and community projects, such as campaigning to establish a Community Childcare Centre, establish an Out of Hours School Care program, and lead the College’s participation in the ‘Dog’s Connect’ program.

Kerry works collaboratively with College staff, parents, carers and students, and leads all Individual Education Plans and Student Support Group meetings, and coordinates Student Support Services (SSS) visits.

Kerry also liaises with the Koorie Education Support Officer (KESO) in supporting 22 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to be immersed in their culture. As a direct result of Kerry’s hard work and dedication, Wedderburn College achieved 85% compliance for inclusive practices and supports, the highest within the region.

Kerry has a passion and desire to learn and improve. She has undertaken a range of professional learning, and also facilitates professional development and training opportunities for teaching and education support staff, as well as for students.

"It really does come down to the passion and determination of individual people to drive positive change and improvement, and Ms Kerry Walker, she really does live by our current value Every Child – Every Opportunity." said Danny Forrest, Principal.

Congratulations on your exceptional achievements!

Yui Backhouse, a Learning Support Assistant (LSA) at Margaret Hendry School, is the Australian Capital Territory Finalist in the Australian Teacher Aide of the Year Awards.

Bernadette Allen, a Learning Coach at Margaret Hendry School, said that Yui is a passionate and experienced staff member who is committed to ensuring that every child is provided with exceptional educational experiences that align with the school vision. 

Yui currently works across years K-5, and with the school's small group program. Her nomination highlights her ability to connect with children to facilitate their learning and wellbeing. 

As part of the school's  'Who We are Together' sessions, Yui develops and teaches programs centred around Japanese and water colour painting. She gathers resources and implements quality programs that are aligned to the Australian Curriculum with value-added student outcomes across the Language and Arts curriculum. Key results of this initiative have been children conversing in Japanese in both written and oral form and quality art learning for the children. Her sessions are so popular, that the team have had to limit the number of children able to participate in each session.

Yui works in partnership with the teaching teams at Margaret Hendry School to improve student learning outcomes. As an example, she collaborates with the learning coaches (teachers) to provide evidence of children's learning, analyse student data, and participate in planning sessions to help make informed decisions about appropriate learning interventions and programs to support individual children.  

Yui has participated in professional learning to enhance her support of student learning and wellbeing. She upskilled herself in using the SeeSaw platform, used by the school for remote learning, and developed videos which focused on the children's science and art learning outcomes. She also participated in school professional learning focused on the development of reading fluency and comprehension, as part of the school's literacy booster program for children across K-2.

Benjaphan Smith, Teacher Aide as a Learning Partner at Brisbane South State Secondary College, is the Queensland Finalist in the Australian Teacher Aide of the Year Awards.

Georgia Row, Head of Inclusive Practices at Brisbane South State Secondary College, said that Benjaphan had the challenging role of being the College's Foundation Teacher Aide, and was integral to shaping the role of a "New Standard" Teacher Aide as a Learning Partner. She says Benjaphan engages the greatness of others, lives in possibilities, and brings those around her with her.

Benjaphan has positively impacted the learning and wellbeing of students both on an individual and cohort level. She puts the student at the centre of everything she does, and considers the individual differences in her approach.

She supports the diverse needs of students, as well as the pedagogy of teachers. As an example, she connected with students by drawing on her own experience as an English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EALD) learner, and shared her experiences with students individually, empathising with their own challenges adjusting to a new culture.

As a foundation staff member, Benjaphan has been integral to developing and maintaining a culture of learning and performance, and intentionally collaborates with teachers and colleagues.

She is a key member of the Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) Committee and supports six different teachers across four subjects in classrooms. She also collaborated with the Design Technologies and Spanish departments, to set the tone for what a collaborative partnership between Heads of Department and Learning Partners can look like.

Benjaphan supports the development and practice of a team of nine Learning Partners (Teacher Aides), and leads solution focused professional learning conversations with the team. Her contributions have developed the capacity of all Learning Partners, and supported their transition into the school's innovative and digital environment.

Benjaphan has had a voice and role in defining a "New Standard" teacher aide as a Learning Partner, and developing the underpinning documentation, tools and resources for the Learning Partner team.

Lisa Veitch, an Education Support Officer (ESO) at Horizon Christian School, is the South Australian Finalist in the Australian Teacher Aide of the Year Awards.

Terry Edmunds, Assistant Principal at Horizon Christian School, said that Lisa has been at the school for 14 years, is well respected by school leadership, and has worked with students from Foundation to Year 12 in a variety of support roles.

Lisa's key role is to support vulnerable and high needs students, those living with complex disabilities, and students who have experienced trauma. She has had a significant impact on the social and emotional learning and welfare of students at the school. As an example, Lisa used her understanding of a student to scaffold re-entry to school after a major incident, enabling the student to successfully transition back to the class and learning.

Lisa is a leader in advocating for the explicit teaching and learning of social competencies for both students and teachers, and compiles resources that are targeted to support students with specific strategies that will enable success. Her knowledge and understanding of the zones of regulation, restorative practice, social competency and student agency is valued by staff, and has had significant impact in the lives of students.

Lisa works collaboratively with all staff, particularly in the areas of disability and inclusion, and also works  closely with allied health professionals to book professional services with minimal disruption to teachers and student learning.

She is a mentor for many in the Student Engagement and Learning team, and supports them in the learning strategies and skills needed in their roles. She was a key organiser in a staff professional development on inclusive education, and assisted with training in trauma informed practice, restorative practice and the Disability Standards for Education. As a result, the school adopted a whole school approach toward becoming a trauma informed school, and is implementing restorative practices to promote a school wide approach to behaviour learning.

Anna Rudolf, a Teacher Assistant at Hobart City High School - Ogilvie Campus, is the Tasmanian Finalist in the Australian Teacher Aide of the Year Awards. 

Claire Morse, Support Teacher at Hobart City High School, said that Anna has an outstanding ability to work with a range of students throughout the school, including students with or without disabilities.

Anna is a specialist literacy teacher assistant and runs Catch Up Literacy sessions. She works collaboratively with teachers, senior staff, and teacher assistants to support students who need targeted literacy intervention in reading and comprehension, and has helped to improve literacy outcomes for many students.

Anna also supports students with complex needs who require extensive adjustments within the classroom. She collaborates with classroom teachers to help plan differentiated work for students across a range of subjects and grade levels. As an example, she met with the Year 10 Math teachers to provide suggestions to differentiate the work for the students she works with, and was able to take a leadership role in the development of resources and alternate tasks.

Anna supports and mentors new or relief teacher assistants. Her experience within the school means that she has a wealth of information on students and their learning needs, and will actively discuss the most effective strategies to provide quality learning for students.

Anna collaborates with occupational therapists, speech therapists and physiotherapists, and other external support people, to support students. She attends meetings, and has learned how to use new equipment to work with physically challenged young people.

Anna values professional learning and attends teacher assistants meetings and other professional learning opportunities at school.

As the school was formally an all-girls school, and became co-educational with an intake of boys into Year 7 in 2022, it has been a steep learning curve for all staff. Anna has embraced this change with good humour, and learnt many new systems including a new IT system for behaviour management, and other school-based systems and processes.

Jane Keehn, an Education Assistant at Como Secondary College, is the West Australian Finalist in the Australian Teacher Aide of the Year Awards.

Mileva Tubbs, Program Coordinator - Operations at Como Secondary College, said that Jane is a highly respected and valued member of the College's Learning Support Program, which is recognised throughout Western Australia for exemplary literacy and numeracy intervention in a secondary school setting.

Since 2018, Jane has been an instrumental proponent of the program, supporting at-risk students in Years 7, 8 and 9 to improve their literacy and numeracy skills.

Jane provides direct instruction in the Connecting Maths Concepts, Spelling Mastery and Corrective Reading programs. She differentiates her instruction to meet the needs of all her students by analysing system data, reviewing student disability adjustment documents, and keeping detailed records regarding student progress to adjust the pace of delivery and content.

She also works in partnership with the Intensive Learning Team (ILT) teachers to improve student outcomes. She provides the teachers with updates on student progress by creating weekly EA reports, in regard to lesson completion and engagement, behaviour, mastery test results, and attendance. Mainstream teachers also collaborate with Jane to differentiate assessments and scaffold content delivery.

Jane leads the EA Team Review on a fortnightly basis during common planning time, and facilitates discussion about student progress, and strategies that help engage students and address gaps in learning. Jane strives to improve her practice through high quality professional development activities, and is a keen participant in the College's Performance and Development cycle. Her ability to recognise the experiences of her colleagues has led to a high functioning and cohesive team of EAs with a high level of collective efficacy.
