Education

For more than 30 years, we have supported the delivery of quality basic education to improve the lives of Filipino children. This includes ongoing support for teacher education and professional development, curriculum enhancement and development of learning and teaching materials. Together with the private sector, Australia is also helping to enhance the education and training system to better respond to current and future industry needs. With our partners, we reskill and upskill workers, who will be affected by automaton, to boost labour competitiveness.
