School Strategic Plan
Under the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic) and Ministerial Order 470, all schools must prepare a four-year School Strategic Plan (SSP) that sets out the school's: philosophy, goals, targets to improve student outcomes and the strategies for achieving them.
Annual Implementation Plan 2023
In the Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) for improving student outcomes, we present our encompassing actions, roles, responsibilities, timelines and success criteria for the next 12 months, leading to the achievement of our four-year goals.
Annual Report 2024
The purpose of the AR to the school community is to inform parents and the wider school community of the school's successes, activities and achievements throughout the year, and to meet legislative and regulatory requirements under the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 and the National Education Agreement 2008.
