School Improvement Planning

" The ultimate goal of school improvement is to improve outcomes for students, including levels of achievement and wellbeing. For this reason, direct measures of student outcomes are essential to all school improvement efforts. However, 'school improvement' fundamentally means improving what a school does."

The School Improvement Planning Phases

The Catholic Schools Office as a key partner for Parish Schools provides the broad systemic expectations to guide schools in developing School Improvement Plans. Input from staff, students and parents will also be essential to ensure our school’s improvement planning best reflects priority areas for school growth to assist effective school planning and the efficient allocation of resources.
