AṈANGU voice in education
In consultation with the community the goals and priorities for PYEC have been mapped over ten years.
PYEC ensures the voice of Aṉangu in education is strong and that they work together to make decisions about how education is run in the APY Lands, Yalata and Oak Valley, and in the development of Aṉangu led ideas and programs. We are an Aṉangu led organisation providing leadership to ensure Aṉangu children receive excellent education and support so they can be successful in the future of their choosing.
