Director General's Award Winner

Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College Tumbi Umbi Campus and its partner schools of Bateau Bay PS, Brooke Avenue PS, The Entrance PS and Wamberal PS are amongst the forty-two New South Wales public schools recognised with one of the education department's most prestigious awards for their significant contribution to public education in the state.

The Director-General's School Achievement Award is given out annually to schools that have made a significant contribution to the achievement of the goals of the department and the promotion of public education in NSW.

The department's director-general Michael Coutts-Trotter said the schools were brilliant examples of the strength of public education in the state.

"It is the dedication and commitment of our teachers, principals and support staff that make our education system world class," he said, "demonstrating innovative teaching and learning programs, and for this they are commended.

"These schools have been recognised for implementing a diverse range of programs, from quality teaching of literacy and numeracy, to the performing arts, leadership and for adding to a positive school environment.

"Not only have they delivered strong outcomes for students, but they have also captured the support of their communities.

"Public education in NSW has deep commitment to teaching values, respect and responsibility to all students, and in doing so we provide quality learning environments for students to learn and grow.

"I congratulate all recipients for their outstanding contribution to public education."

The Director-General's School Achievement Award will be presented at to each school at our Presentation Events to enable the participation of school staff, students and community members.
