SA HALT Network
The SA HALT Network (formerly the Lead Teacher Association South Australia Inc.) has been championing teacher leadership and professional excellence across South Australia since 2011.
We are a vibrant, inclusive professional association welcoming all educators — from Early Career Teachers and aspiring leaders to Highly Accomplished and Lead Teachers, assessors, alumni, and school leaders — across all education sectors in South Australia. If you are passionate about professional growth, impact, and excellence in teaching, this network is for you.
At the heart of the SA HALT Network is a strong commitment to high-quality professional learning that is accessible and affordable. Members enjoy free and reduced-rate professional learning opportunities, designed to grow expertise, strengthen leadership from the classroom, and connect educators with like-minded peers.
Our network exists to advance the expertise and professionalism of educators by:
- Providing rich opportunities for all educators to deepen classroom practice and understand how students learn
- Supporting teachers to lead from the classroom, regardless of formal leadership role
- Equipping school and system leaders to effectively support and grow expert practitioners
- Creating spaces for members to connect, collaborate, innovate, and learn together.
Grounded in the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers and the National Certification for Highly Accomplished and Lead Teachers, the SA HALT Network plays a vital role in elevating the status of the teaching profession by recognising, nurturing, and celebrating exemplary practice.
The SA HALT Network is more than a professional association — it is a supportive community and trusted resource for educators at every career stage who are committed to growth, excellence, and making a difference in South Australian education.
