TRAIN AND EMPLOY CHRISTIAN TEACHERS
Our Partners
Dr Caitlin Munday, Director of The Teaching Schools Alliance Sydney
The Hub Model brings ground-breaking teacher formation to the next generation of teachers.
Join this innovative program where your school can partner with Alphacrucis in training Christian teachers.
St Philip's Christian School and the Teaching School Alliance Sydney are two of our many hubs. The Hub model flips the classroom so aspiring trainee teachers spend 1-2 days a week in your school, observing classrooms and teaching practice, and receiving mentorship and guidance until they are classroom ready at the end of their course.

“There is a looming teacher shortage and more than 1500 teachers will be needed over the next 10 years within the 39 Anglican schools in Sydney. Alphacrucis College gives us a sense of quality control; we can home-grow our teachers.”

Why study with AC?
Alphacrucis Training
Students get to learn from some of the world's best educators. Lecturers from Alphacrucis College ensure your theoretical knowledge is sound and are dedicated to your spiritual growth, wellbeing, and development as a teacher.
One-on-One Mentoring
You'll be able to assign an experienced Mentor Teacher throughout the internship period. Regular meetings with Mentor Teachers also help students to reflect on their classroom observations and to guide their development as a teacher.
The Scholarship Program
The hub schools offer positions to a select number of successful applicants. These include a Teacher Assistant position, as well as potential subsidised course fees and a free lease of a laptop to assist the students' studies.
Career ready on graduation
By spending a day each week at a partner school, students graduate with a Bachelor of Education or Master of Teaching well-prepared and set up for a teaching job at one of our partner schools.
"Our vision is for equipping and growing a new generation of Christian teachers, and seeing future principals raised up in the next. Men and women who, at the completion of their teacher training are courageous, convicted, and highly capable as they enter the classroom."
Dr Caitlin Munday
Director of The Teaching Schools Alliance Sydney
"Graduates were not classroom-ready because they had not had sufficient exposure to the day-to-day realities of teaching. With this pilot, we will put into action much of the global research that shows the clinical training model overcomes many of the limitations of the dominant existing model."
