NEW VOICE SCHOLARSHIPS
Winners / Alumni

It is with great pride that ACEL congratulates the recipients of the New Voice Scholarships which recognise forward thinking, contextually relevant and responsive educational leaders whose work has had an impact above and beyond their immediate context. The New Voice Scholarships initiative was launched in 2015 and represents ACEL’s significant commitment to encouraging and recognising the emerging voices in educational leadership from a range of perspectives.

We continue to see a high volume of outstanding candidates across the four categories open for submission, showcasing the depth of our emerging educational leaders that Australia has to offer.

Each scholarship welcomes the recipient into the ACEL network and supports the dissemination of new learning and thought. Among the suite of benefits and support of the ACEL community, recipients will also receive complimentary attendance to that years ACEL National Conference.

On behalf of The Australian Council for Educational Leaders, we would like to officially welcome and congratulate our wonderful New Voice Scholarship winners. The New Voice Scholarship program is a shining light within our sphere of influence providing recipients with opportunities to both learn and contribute to the profession.
