Our work impacts 325,000 students, their families and communities. QASSP is the voice of Queensland’s state primary schools. We approach our advocacy with an emphasis on building the relationship. On behalf of our 1300 members, the Association sits on over 50 committees and responds to all education related government policy. On the national stage, QASSP is an active member of the Australian Government Primary Principals Association and the Australian Primary Principals Association. The strength of the Association lies in the voluntary support members give to fellow members. Our network of 45 branches is assisted by a team working from our fully-owned office in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley. Since 1966, the work done and services offered have been in direct response to member need, overseen by a member-elected Management Committee and President. QASSP also provides professional learning opportunities for school educators – from classroom teachers and curriculum leaders to aspiring, new and experienced school leaders. Our programs include: Phonemic Awareness, Fierce Conversations, 7 Habits for Highly Effective People, and Designed InGenuity. Members can access international study tours, work shadowing and mentoring programs and research and publishing opportunities. The Association’s professional journal – The Queensland Principal– is published quarterly and is available for purchase by subscription.
