The Association is committed to supporting program development and developing professional learning opportunities for teachers of Stage 4, 5, and 6 Philosophy, especially those new to teaching the DET Stage 5 Philosophy elective linked here: https://education.nsw.gov.au/teaching-and-learning/curriculum/department-approved-courses/philosophy

Since 2023 we have worked with the Centre for Critical Thinking and Ethics at Newington College to organise workshops under the banner ENGAGING QUESTIONS:  Teaching Secondary Philosophy

Led by experienced classroom practitioners, these practical workshops are for anyone teaching, or interested in teaching, Philosophy in a secondary school setting. Whether you are teaching elective courses for Stage 5 or 6 or providing academic extension outside the standard curriculum, these workshops will provide accessible introductions to the key areas of Philosophy, as well as classroom activities and resources. 

For more information about the 2023 course please see: https://events.humanitix.com/engaging-questions-teaching-secondary-philosophy

In 2024 we co-organised https://www.newington.nsw.edu.au/blog/event/engaging-questions-2024-assessment-of-philosophical-community-of-inquiry/
