Josephine Mamic – STATSI Graduate

Jaz Wallace – STATSI Cadet, 2nd Year
"I genuinely cannot overstate how valuable this experience has been for my development—both professionally and personally. Being in the classroom every week has completely changed my confidence and understanding of teaching."
For Jaz, the cadetship’s hands-on learning and strong mentorship were key to achieving early success in her teaching placements.
Jacob Wootton – First STATSI Graduate
"From the very beginning of the program, I experienced the realities of real-life teaching. It wasn’t just theory from a textbook—I was planning lessons, leading small groups, and truly learning what it means to be a teacher."
Now a full-time teacher in Catholic Education, Jacob says STATSI gave him not only practical experience, but the foundation to teach with purpose and faith.
