The journey began in 2015 to establish the Educational Support Operational Integrity Team at Melbourne Girls’ College.

 

Our team was committed to encourage evidence-informed, open, respectful discussions of current professional practice.

 

Our approach at school was to provide a shared understanding of what students at the centre meant to all stakeholders, including parents, students and all staff.

 

We worked together to raise awareness of financial accountability and how this is linked to our values in regards to student wellbeing, compliance, hardship and governance.

 

 

The award application consisted of a 2000 word proposal which led us to be invited to an intensive interview and on 26th October we were presented the prestigious award.
