School Development Planning (SDP) element #24

To any US readers my sympathies about the Las Vegas massacre.  It beggars belief.  We Australians have very tight gun laws and do not constitutionally have the right to bear arms.  This is all down to a recent prime minister who bit the gun control bullet after a massacre shooting in Port Arthur Tasmania our southern most state.

*********************************

This is about keeping up to date with curriculum changes as done by the quasi government bodies who have such responsibility.

SDP element #24	Relationships with quasi government assessment bodies appointed by the State or Territory.  This applies more to secondary schools and the need to meet tertiary entrance requirements.
Aligned SE criterion	NA
Current school documentation	The school has clear and stable documentation about these relationships.
Development objectives for 2016	Keep abreast of the State’s adjustments to the ANC and apply these in the school. Induct new staff into these relationships.
Resources needed ·       people, ·       money ·       time ·       location ·       stationery ·       IT	·       Administrative staff (primary) keep abreast of the ANC changes and inform and mentor teachers in implementing the changes. (In secondary schools ‘curriculum coordinators’ and ‘senior subject teachers’ would be responsible for keeping all relevant staff up to date.) ·       This is an ongoing check and act process with the communications coming out of the state body that controls the adjustments to the ANC.
Timeline to achieve the objective(s)	Ongoing throughout 2016
Process for achieving the objectives	Awareness by the administrative staff and mentoring the changes. Ensuring that too much change is not attempted.
Outcome(s) of the assessment of the attainment of the objective(s)	The ANC as administered in the school is up to date with the latest changes to the ANC

Almost there in this long haul of SDP elements.


May the Force be with you!
