Oakleigh Grammar have congratulated Rebecca Bettiol, MYP Learning Leader (Art and Design) and Round Square Coordinator, for being named in The Educator’s Hot List 2024, a prestigious list celebrating the most inspiring and influential educators in Australia.

The Hot List recognises outstanding professionals who go above and beyond to make a meaningful impact on students, schools, and the education sector. Rebecca’s innovative leadership and dedication to fostering creativity, critical thinking, and global citizenship have made her a standout in this year’s list.

In her dual roles, Rebecca oversees the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP) in Art and Design, where she inspires students to explore their creative potential and develop interdisciplinary skills. She was also instrumental in bringing to life the School’s first Junior School Production in 2024, The Wind in the Willows.

As Oakleigh Grammar’s Round Square Coordinator, she leads the school’s participation in a global network of schools committed to character education and experiential learning through Internationalism, Democracy, Environmental Stewardship, Adventure, Leadership, and Service (IDEALS).

Rebecca’s influence extends beyond the classroom as she collaborates with global educators, facilitates student engagement in international conferences, and champions initiatives that align with the school’s values of academic excellence and social responsibility.

Principal Mark Robertson proudly expressed how “Rebecca Bettiol exemplifies the spirit of excellence at Oakleigh Grammar, as a leader in Art and Design within the IB MYP program, a dedicated Round Square facilitator, and a highly respected Performing Arts teacher.”

“Her drive to inspire our students to push their creative boundaries and embrace the value of global citizenship, along with her commitment to nurturing both academic and personal growth makes her a truly deserving recipient of the Educator Hot List award,” Mr Robertson added.

Reflecting on the recognition, Rebecca said, “I am incredibly proud and humbled to be recognised on the Educator Hot List Awards for 2024.”

“As a teacher at Oakleigh Grammar, I am passionate about fostering creativity through the Arts and Design, and empowering students with a global perspective that celebrates diversity and inclusivity. This recognition fuels my commitment to inspire, challenge, and support every student in reaching their fullest potential, and I am grateful to be part of such a vibrant and forward-thinking community,” Rebecca added.

This accolade is a testament to Rebecca’s unwavering commitment to her students and Oakleigh Grammar’s dedication to empowering educators to reach their full potential.
