Overview

The Council of ACT Education Associations (COACTEA) was formed in 1997 and currently comprises 32 member associations representing approximately 4000 teachers and educators. Member associations are listed on the back panel. COACTEA encourages all associations involved in the field of education to become a member.

COACTEA is a member of the Australian Professional Teachers Association (APTA).
