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. -

State of Tasmania Years 9 – 12 Education Review
STATE OF TASMANIA YEARS 9 – 12 EDUCATION REVIEW Submission by Eleanor Ramsay and Michael Rowan ATTACHMENT 1 1 Using MySchool to benchmark Tasmanian Year 12 attainment rates against similar schools in other states Prof Eleanor Ramsay and Prof Michael Rowan, June 2016 [Minor correction 2 July 2016 – see note (2), page 24.] Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within. Stephen Jay Gould PREAMBLE Prof Alan Reid, in his defence of the importance of public education, Building our nation through public education, writes Apart from denying individuals the chance to develop to their fullest potential, there is now overwhelming evidence demonstrating the deleterious effects of educational inequality on social and economic outcomes and political participation. Productivity falls, participation in civic life is diminished, and social dislocation is greater. Since education is one of the most important determinants of levels of inequality, it is clear that there is need for urgent action to improve equity in Australian schooling. The kind of evidence for inequality in Australian schooling Prof Reid would have in mind compares the outcomes for students in wealthier schools in wealthier communities with the outcomes for students in poorer schools in poorer communities. This evidence is well known, and is the basis for attempts to reduce inequality in schooling, most recently by the Gonski funding reforms. In what follows we compare Tasmanian schools to like schools elsewhere in Australia. -

Annual Report 2007–08
Department of Education Annual Report 2007–08 Department of Education David Bartlett MP Premier of Tasmania Minister for Education and Skills Parliament House HOBART Tasmania 7000 Dear Minister In accordance with the requirements of section 36 of the Tasmanian State Service Act 2000 and section 27 of the Financial Management and Audit Act 1990, I am pleased to submit to you this report of the activities of the Department of Education for the financial year 2007–08. This year has been an exciting and challenging period for education, skills development and the Community Knowledge Network. Major initiatives include the ground-breaking post-Year 10 strategy—Tasmania Tomorrow. Our key focus has been on providing learners of all ages with quality educational opportunities, investing heavily in the early years, literacy and numeracy, student retention, training and lifelong learning. The Student at the Centre plan is now fully implemented and has successfully realised the government’s commitment to allocate more money through the school gate. Principals and school communities use their resources to focus on the needs of students and lead school improvement according to the needs of their schools. Following the Tasmanian Literacy Summit, schools have been supported to develop a literacy plan to ensure the individual learning needs of all students are understood and met as we strive to improve their literacy skills. We want fast results, but we also want them to be sustainable for the long-term. We are investing in teachers and schools to deliver ongoing improvements. As part of our commitment to the community and our promise of transparent reporting, we released Tasmania’s Education Performance Report 2007 – Government Schools in June 2008. -

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. -
