School Performance & Improvement

Performance and Development Plans (PDP) 2023 - End-Cycle Review

As a school, for the performance and development process in 2023, we will use the state-wide alternative Statement of Expectation instead of the standard Performance and Development Plan (PDP) process. Staff or reviewers are not required to complete any routine documentation or monitoring in eduPay.

The 2023 Statement of Expectation for teacher class employees is aligned to the key improvement strategies of learning and wellbeing in the AIP. Teacher class employees are encouraged to consider how they contribute to these areas as appropriate to their role and setting.

PDPs in 2023 will be completed in teams for teachers and ESS. Staff with other positions of responsibility will have a 1:1 PDP with your line manager. 

Please find below your PDP template with state-wide goals for your salary classification with a summary of aligned AIP activities:

At the start of the PDP cycle, Teachers were asked to complete a reflection against the High Impact Teaching Strategies (HITS) and new High Impact Wellbeing Strategies. To download these documents please click on the buttons below:

ESS will use the Excellence in Teaching and Learning Framework aligned to the Jackson Teaching & Learning Model, HITS and HIWS for their end-of-cycle group reflection.

2024 School Review

We have been notified by the School Review Unit that our 2023 School Review is scheduled to take place in Term 3, 2024. A school reviewer will be allocated in August and will make contact with us by Week 5 of Term 1 2024, to organise dates for a preparation meeting and the school review. We will begin to prepare our pre-review self-evaluation (PRSE) on the School Planning Online Tool from Term 3, 2023. 

At the start of next year we will begin our Review Methodology with our School Improvement Team(s) and all staff against FISO 2.0 and our SSP goals and targets. We have made significant progress towards our 2020-2024 SSP, despite interruptions from COVID-19 and challenges faced upon returning back to school, staffing shortages and our capital works program.

Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) 2023

The AIP documents the annual plan for school improvement priorities and provides purpose for all members of the school community as we work towards the goals set out in the four-year School Strategic Plan (SSP). The leadership team have aligned these key improvement strategies with those in our SSP and FISO 2.0 five core elements and 10 dimensions.

As part of our COVID-19 recovery, the 2023 AIP is focused around the Framework for Improving Student Outcomes and DE priorities of:

1. Learning – Support both those who need extra support and those who have thrived to continue to extend their learning
2. Wellbeing – Effectively mobilise available resources to support students’ wellbeing and mental health, especially the most vulnerable

This year we will begin our preparation for our school review against the Framework for Student Outcomes (FISO 2.0) and the VRQA minimum standards. We have already begun reviewing our compliance against all of our school-level policies and procedures required for school registration.
