The Educator | December 2016
Who are the movers and shakers in education in Australia? Who are the pioneers?
For the second year in a row, The Educator shines a spotlight on 40 individuals leading the way in the field
Welcome to The Educator’s second annual Hot List.
It’s an unenviable task compiling a definitive list of the true leaders in this space, given the abundance of excellent work being undertaken across the country to enrich the educational experiences of K-12 students. So we once again turned to readers, asking for your submissions as to who warrants a place on this prestigious list.

Also features in the Hotlist (left to right): Karen Spiller: National chair, Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia Tina Tower: Founder and CEO, Begin Bright Simon Breakspear: Founder and executive director, Agile Schools
We’ve been overwhelmed by the response that we received. It attests to the outstanding efforts of those working in a broad range of educational institutions across Australia. In the end, the team at The Educator selected 40 individuals, who are profiled on the pages that follow.
