How to complete this template
• Complete every step. The Quality School Improvement Planning Handbook explains how to do this. In addition, your education director will provide support.
• Complete steps 1 to 3 during term 4 of 2018 and have it approved by the principal, governing council chairperson, and education director.
• Email this plan (steps 1 to 3) to your education director.
• Publish your school improvement plan on your school website.
• Work through step 4 (Improve Practice and Monitor Impact) regularly throughout the school year. This step does not need to be published on your website.
• Complete step 5 (Review and Evaluate) in term 4 of each year. This step does not need to be published on your website, though it should inform the
Improvement Planning and Outcomes section of your annual report to the school community.
• Your school improvement plan will be current for 2019 to 2021 and should be updated in term 4 each year.

goals and annual targets for student learning improvement in the table below.
The Quality School Improvement Planning Handbook explains how to do this.

Page 4 of 12Step 2 Determine challenge of practice
Consider how improvements in teaching practice will help to achieve your improvement goals and answer the
question ‘What areas of practice should we focus on improving to reach our goals?’ Specify your challenge of
practice for each goal in the table below.
The Quality School Improvement Planning Handbook explains how to do this.
Challenge of practice
Goal 1 Literacy:
If we differentiate using the National Literacy Learning Progression, with a focus on supporting students to use rich vocabulary to
craft ideas, we will increase student achievement in writing in Years R to 7.
Goal 2 Numeracy:
If we differentiate using the National Numeracy Learning Progression with a focus on designing multi-step mathematical
problem-solving tasks and investigations we will increase student achievement in mathematics particularly in the number strand
Years R to 7.
Goal 3 Literacy:
If we continue using the Big 6 reading strategies with a focus on, comprehension, building vocabulary and phonemic awareness,
we will increase students' achievement in Running Records R to 2.
Page 5 of 12Step 3 Plan actions for improvement
Consider evidence of best practice to answer the question ‘What actions should we take to improve our practice and reach our goals?’ Specify your
actions for improvement, timeline, responsibility, resources and success criteria for each goal in the tables below.
The Quality School Improvement Planning Handbook explains how to do this.
