Schoolbox-Logo-Tagline-Edleaders-V2.png

Australia's only education awards list selected entirely by educators.

 

At Edleaders, we believe in transformational leadership that drives impact and positive change in schools and education more broadly.  The 2023 Edleaders Impact List sponsored by Schoolbox aims to celebrate the diverse group of individuals who work tirelessly to bring about impactful change in their learning community. These individuals are thought ‘doers’, activators, 'system' nudgers, innovators, and advocates. They do not exclusively come from the educator ranks, but are people who work 'in' and 'on' the business of schools.

​

Edleaders would like to thank the selectors - Adriano Di Prato, Mathilda Joubert, David Mulford, Dr Anne Knock & Louka Parry, as well as one other selector who wished to remain anonymous. We appreciate your time in considering your selections, and further information about each selector can be found at the bottom of the list.  

​

We congratulate the 2023 Edleaders Impact List and hope that you will join us in celebrating the impact that they are having in their immediate and broader education communities.
