Do you want to volunteer in schools and make a positive difference to a young person's life?

EdConnect matches volunteers with schools in need. We recruit volunteers for Primary and Secondary schools. 

Our volunteers are usually long-term and spare 1 hour per week. They can offer one-on-one mentoring to students or simply help out in classrooms with reading, numeracy, art, cooking and much more. 

Our volunteers undergo thorough checks and clearances as well as training to ensure they have the skills and ability to work with young people. 

Did you know that 1 in 5 young people are at risk of not fulfilling their educational potential. Australian students in the lowest socio-economic quartile are performing on average at a rate equivalent to 2½ years behind the highest socio-economic quartile. Australian and international research consistently shows that children and young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are more likely to experience markers of disengagement.

If you would like to be part of the solution and assist our overburdened schools and teachers, while at the same time pass on your knowledge and skills to a new generation, please call us on 1800 668 550 or apply online.
