Presentation transcript:

Building strong cultural relationships to improve student outcomes

 Bourke Public School is situated in Western NSW and is attended by approximately 207 students, of whom 76% are Aboriginal.  Bourke Public School works closely with the local Aboriginal Education Consultative Group to promote improved levels of student achievement, engagement and attendance.

 Bourke implemented a range of strategies aimed at strengthening community relationships and improving Aboriginal student outcomes. These included: o Analysis of Best Start, the Early Years Learning Framework and NAPLAN data to differentiate the curriculum and meet individual learning needs of Aboriginal students o Expanding the Aboriginal Languages Program o maintaining a major focus on improving attendance rates through the Targeted Attendance Mentor initiative

o Implementing a cultural awareness program involving the local community and elders, including an increased understanding of local sites o Embedding the 8 Ways of learning pedagogy into teaching and learning programs o Supporting the transition of students into Kindergarten through the implementation of Personalised Learning Plans by the School Learning Support Officer o Implementing strategic literacy and numeracy programs including Reading to Learn, MULTILIT, and Maths Matters

 These strategies have resulted in improved educational outcomes for Aboriginal students reflected in positive NAPLAN results, including: o Improved expected growth for reading and numeracy for Years 3 and 5 o Overall school average growth for Aboriginal students was 50 points above the state average in reading and 25 points above the state for numeracy o Percentages in the bottom bands for all Year 5 students have decreased o The Year 5 average is the highest the school has achieved since NAPLAN began in 2008.

 In 2013, Bourke Public School will join other geographically isolated schools and communities in NSW’s Connected Communities strategy to broaden the influence of the community and school leadership and play a role in the delivery of key services in supporting children and young people from birth through school into further training, study and employment.
