Welcome to the Science Teachers' Association of the NT!

The Science Teachers' Association of the Northern Territory (STANT) are the voice locally and nationally regarding science related issues. We are a collaborative  organisation made up entirely of volunteer educators from Northern Territory schools, tertiary establishments and government education departments. The Australian Science Teachers' Association (ASTA) is the federation to whom all state and territory science teacher associations belong to.

STANT values the expertise of NT teachers, their capability to broaden and share knowledge, and their  dedication to promoting excellence in our teaching community. STANT's vision is to be valued as the gateway to high-quality and respected professional learning, support, advice and networking opportunities across the Northern Territory. Through continued grant revenue sourcing, STANT sponsors members to attend local, national and international professional development opportunities. STANT also organises access to social and educational events, such as the local Territory Young Scientist competition, CONASTA and Bush Blitz to encourage networking among science educators to enhance the quality of science education in the NT.
