Ministerial Report Report Ministerial SCHOOL VIABILITY
Ministerial Report Report Ministerial SCHOOL VIABILITY School Viability Reference Group Report to the Minister for Education and Skills 31 January 2012 1 Note from the Chair The Hon Nick McKim MP Minister for Education and Skills Ministerial Parliament House HOBART 7000 Report School Viability Reference Dear Nick Group Report Thank you for the opportunity to chair the School Viability Reference Group tasked with providing a report and recommendations on maintaining a viable Government School system in Tasmania. On behalf 31 January 2012 of our Group, I am pleased to provide you with our final report. Ministerial Report Ministerial At the outset our Group agreed it was vital we begin by meeting with representatives of all Tasmanian Government schools and Local Governments to seek their views. In addition we invited written responses from interested groups and individuals. This proved to be an invaluable process and was the origin for much of our thinking which has led to the recommendations outlined in this report. Without question schools are considered an important part of a community, particularly in rural and remote regions. In many cases we heard strong and credible economic and social arguments supporting the continuation of local schools. Our Group is generally supportive of these views but believes any additional cost to maintain a school for these reasons should not be the responsibility of the Education Department but should be funded from other sources following a comprehensive review of each case. Our recommendations have been based primarily on ensuring the best possible education outcomes for all of Tasmania’s children and young people attending Government schools. -

The diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine given in high school is a booster dose, given as one injection. Varicella (chickenpox) is given as one injection. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is given as three doses, on different days over 6 months. All school vaccines are safe and well tolerated. Worldwide tens of millions of doses have been given. Most side effects are minor, for example discomfort or redness at the injection site, and disappear quickly. You cannot catch the diseases from the vaccines. After vaccination students will stay near the doctor/nurse immuniser so they can be observed for any immediate reactions. Severe reactions are rare. Having more than one injection on the same day does not increase the chance of a child having a reaction to the vaccines. -
