Education Services Australia Limited (ESA), is a not-for-profit ministerial company, created by MCEECDYA, which commenced service on 1 March 2010.
ESA was established as a dedicated, national service organisation for the education sector to deliver innovative, cost effective services across all aspects of education. It has been formed through a merger of two pre-existing education ministerial companies - Curriculum Corporation and Education.au Limited.
Education Services Australia builds on the existing expertise and reputations of the former companies to provide efficient education services, particularly in relation to the implementation of national initiatives such as the National Curriculum and the Digital Education Revolution.
It provides services to members of MCEECDYA and other education and training bodies, including:
researching, testing and developing effective and innovative technologies and communication systems for use in education;
devising, developing and delivering curriculum and assessment, professional development, career and information support services;
facilitating the pooling, sharing and distribution of knowledge, resources and services to support and promote e-learning;
supporting national infrastructure to ensure access to quality assured systems and content and interoperability between individuals, entities and systems;
creating, publishing, disseminating and marketing curriculum and assessment materials, ICT based solutions, products and services to support learning, teaching, leadership and administration, as required by the company owners or by organisations which commission such work.
The ESA Board is chaired by Dr Tom Stubbs, formerly chair of Education.au Ltd. The Board’s membership comprises experts across a range of fields including education, governance, information and communication technology, business and marketing.
Ms Susan Mann is the company’s inaugural Chief Executive Officer. Ms Mann was Chief Executive Officer of Curriculum Corporation from 2004. ESA will operate from existing offices in Adelaide and Melbourne.
