New Principal for Bunbury Regional Community College from the start of 2021

The Governing Council of BRCC is pleased to announce that Brett Piggott has been appointed to succeed Jo Bednall as Principal of the College from the start of 2021.

Brett has been an Advisory Teacher at BRCC since the start of 2019.  He grew up in Manjimup, attended Edith Cowan University in Perth and began his teaching career in Byford.  He then travelled overseas and worked in South Korea and in Canada.  He is now living in Bunbury with his wife and two young children.

Whilst in Canada, Brett taught  at Georgian College for nine years.  This College helps school leavers and adults to re-engage with their learning in order to gain employment or further education.  Brett’s role included lecturing, pathway planning with students and helping staff to use a range of learning strategies with their students.

Since he has been at BRCC, Brett has demonstrated his commitment to his students; they trust him to be a non-judgemental teacher, coach and counsellor and they know that he will constantly support them to find a way forward.

Brett’s colleagues at BRCC value his clear thinking, his open communication, his knowledge and curiosity about education and the warm, supportive contribution that he makes to the staff team. They are delighted that he has been appointed as the second principal of BRCC and are looking forward to supporting him in his new role.
