On Monday, 22 July the Department of Education released a draft Regional Education Strategy. The Strategy aims to provide a framework to guide more effective delivery of regional education, focusing on improved educational and wellbeing opportunities across four pillars:
Pillar 1: Build the capability of our regional workforce
Pillar 2: Expand curriculum delivery
Pillar 3: Strengthen support for student wellbeing
Pillar 4: Develop partnerships to create opportunity
Country zones and Local Governments are strongly encouraged to provide feedback on the strategy, particularly given the relevance of the Strategy to matters raised by the Great Southern Zone with support from other country zones.
The consultation period closes on Friday 20 September 2024.
More information is available here.
In addition to WALGA is currently working with the Department of Education to facilitate direct engagement with regional sector and will advise on the details shortly.
