Revealed: Australia's 5-Star Employers of Choice 2024

Revealed: Australia

A school’s biggest asset is its staff. They are the ones who give the resources, facilities and tools meaning by using them to provide students with the best education possible.

The Educator's 5-Star Employers of Choice 2024 recognises the schools at the vanguard of this movement, supporting and understanding the needs of their staff.

Each has their own way of doing it, but all are united in their belief in striving to create exceptional workplaces.

In February, The Educator asked participants to fill in details about outstanding programs they currently have in place. Next, employees from nominated schools were asked to fill out an anonymous form evaluating their workplace on a number of metrics, including benefits, compensation, culture, employee development and commitment to diversity and inclusion.

The 2024 winners were evaluated over several criteria, including benefits, culture, and employee development, among others.

Each featured institution demonstrated workplace excellence by providing and prioritising professional growth and wellbeing of their staff. Some winners even offer fitness classes and encourage employees to pursue their interests and passions.

Among this year’s list of top education employers in Australia are: 

Westbourne Grammar School

Hills Grammar School

John Paul College

Salesian College Sunbury

Clifton Springs Primary School

Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School
