The school has used a wide range of tools and data to evaluate the 2012-14 school plan and determine the school's future strategic directions. These include: a whole school needs analysis, curriculum evaluations, whole school program evaluations, as well as analysis of student learning outcomes data and data gathered from student surveys (TTFM, Surveymonkey) and parent surveys. The schools overwhelming strength is reflected in our value added data and our HSC results. Relative performance from our year 10 data shows a long term average value added however this data does reflect our need to focus on students at the high achieving end. Our learning interventions for this targeted group have been a focus for the school over the last 3 years. |
As a result our key focuses are on improving the academic achievement of our middle to upper middle performing students across all years and embedding across all KLA's literacy strategies based on targeting authentic texts and delivering real world numeracy experiences. Using this evidence the school executive and whole school staff undertook a detailed collaborative process to determine the current school strengths and identified directions and areas for improvement.
