Aspiration ISMART Target / Milestone Setting – February All staff address the following questions in their reflection:  What exceptions, trends or patterns are being demonstrated over time?  Are the needs of all our students identified and planned for? (This may include students clustered at strategic points in relation to MSE benchmarks or achievement targets, males, females, Indigenous students, Deaf, ATP, those at the margins of levels or grades.)  What differences have our interventions made to students’ achievements?  Have we achieved our targets for student improvement or program implementation?  Where are the strengths and weaknesses in our performance?  What needs to be embedded and sustained to improve achievement?  Is there an alignment between self assessment, planning and performance management and the allocation of resources?  To what extent does the DoE Focus and current school improvement plan translate into our College context?

DoE Focus Plan 2011 Promote collaborative approaches to learning, teaching and assessment. Establish clear standards of achievement and set challenging, realistic targets for students & Use data efficiently to accurately assess performance and plan for improvement. Improve literacy achievement of students (writing, grammar, punctuation) & Intervene early with tailored programs to support students at risk in literacy, numeracy and science. Implement an effective whole-school behaviour management approach. Provide targeted support for newly appointed teachers. Use school accountability processes to generate public confidence.
