Impact Awards
The Impact Awards are for school-community partnerships that can demonstrate improved student outcomes as a result of their partnership.
In 2010, there will be:
- 68 Local Impact Awards of $50,000 each
- Eight State/Territory Impact Awards of a further $50,000 each
(receiving a total of $100,000 each) - One National Award winner receiving a further $400,000
(receiving a total of $500,000).
The National Award each year will be won by a truly exceptional
school-community partnership that demonstrates outstanding
performance against the award criteria. They will also have a compelling
strategy for using the funds.
