MYSA - The Middle Years of Schooling Association

The Middle Years of Schooling Association (MYSA) is an Australia-wide organisation dedicated exclusively to the education, development and growth of young adolescents as identified in the Melbourne Declaration on Educational Goals for Young Australians.

MYSA aims to:
• inform individuals, professional educators, parents and the wider community about the nature of responsive education in the middle years of schooling
• promote the achievements and efforts of individuals, professional educators, parents and the wider community in meeting the developmental needs and interests of young adolescents
• provide a voice for those interested in and committed to the education, development and growth of young adolescents
• identify and encourage relevant research in the areas of the middle years of schooling.

Positions adopted by MYSA are based on relevant learning theory, informed practice, research into adolescent development and other research pertinent to the middle years of schooling as described in our Position Paper.
