A new regional Teacher scholarship program is hoped to alleviate potential teaching shortages.
Through Catholic Education South Australia (CESA), four Riverland based Education Support Officers have secured a Transition to Teaching Scholarship.
The four local ESO’s are based at Renmark’s St Francis of Assisi College, Our Lady of the River School in Berri, St Joseph’s School in Renmark as well as Loxton’s St Alberts.
Callan Maczkowiack, an ESO at St Albert’s Catholic School, Loxton said “Receiving a Transition to Teaching scholarship means so much to me. I feel so supported in my career path and the financial assistance will make a huge difference whilst I am studying.”
