The approach to School Excellence is student-centric and built on:

  • strong self-assessment and evaluative practices
  • a clear focus on student wellbeing, growth and attainment
  • an evidence-informed Strategic Improvement Plan (SIP) for every school
  • progress monitoring, through regular collection and analysis of evidence, to inform next steps.

The School Excellence cycle is underpinned by the School Excellence Framework which supports all NSW public schools in their pursuit of excellence.

The School Excellence Framework (SEF):

  • provides a clear description of effective practice across the key educational domains of learning, teaching and leading, and informs and guides decision-making by principals.
  • is evidence-based and identifies explicit school practices that are directly related to continuous, school-wide improvement and better student outcomes for your students.
