    UpRising offers 50 NSW High School Design & Technology students the opportunity to meet industry leaders, businesses, and community members, receive feedback, test ideas and prototypes, and promote their final projects.

    Each year UpRising Design students are offered big opportunities to connect with business & industry to develop their capabilities and major projects. It's simple yet powerful and does not add any more to teacher's or students' workload. 

    Entries are limited to 3 students per school, with a processing fee of $120 per school.

    The Process

    1. Teachers save three spaces for your Year 12 Design & Technology class by clicking on the registration link in the iTE Events portal. Teachers then have until the end of November to decide which three students will enter.    

    2. Get your three students to complete the Terms & Conditions (attached) and email the forms to iTE President or Secretary at grant.byrne@det.nsw.edu.au   kperdriau@kings.edu.au  

    3. Whilst this is happening ask your three students to create a user account in UpRising platform by clicking on the Sign up link 

    4. When T&Cs and fees have been received, and students have created their account, we will elevate the registered students to ‘Author’ status and they will be able to create their POST. 

    5. All posts are expected to be LIVE at the beginning of February 2024 on the UpRising platform, able to get likes, feedback, offers of assistance, and mentorship. Students need to respond to these comments and feedback to maintain these connections.

    6. In March, three student projects will receive Seed Funding via a People's Choice 'likes', mechanism. 

    7. At the end of July all projects are voted on by the UpRising Alliance group, with the top three projects/students awarded further opportunities.

    Developing Mutually Beneficial Interactions Between Secondary and Tertiary Education

    The NSW secondary and tertiary education sectors operate in almost entire isolation of one another. However, they are two adjacent components of an education continuum for many students. The recent Australian Universities Accord includes a call for up to 80% of Australians to undertake tertiary education by 2050. If this vision is to be realised, the importance of the pathway between high school and university is set to grow. The tertiary education sector relies heavily on high schools to prepare students to suitable level of proficiency for ongoing learning. Any under-preparation of incoming students -or failure to meet incoming eligibility standards- carries significant costs for universities. However, there is little evidence of universities actively engaging in opportunities to optimise high school educational outcomes. This keynote presentation will describe the incentives for increased university engagement with NSW high schools and explore opportunities for mutually beneficial interactions between the sectors.
