    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.

  • 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.

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.

  • 'Clean-Up' Activities Around the Derwent Estuary
    CLEAN UP AUSTRALIA DAY 2009 summary of ‘clean-up’ activities around the Derwent Estuary 1 INTRODUCTION The Derwent Estuary Program is coordinating a ‘Clean Up the Derwent’ litter campaign over the next two years, with support from the Australian Government’s Caring for Our Country. As part of this, a review was completed focussing on activities carried out as part of Cleanup Australia Day 2009. As a starting point, a foreshore litter database and website was established to document how much litter was collected from sites around the Derwent foreshore during this years Clean Up Australia Day. This information will then be used as a basis for future planning and to set a baseline for future efforts. The main aim of the clean Up the Derwent litter campaign is to improve ecosystem resilience through on-ground litter campaigns, reports/maps on clean up sites, amount and type of litter. Monitoring will include records and reports of the number of sites, participants and amount of litter collected. As identified in the 2003 State of the Derwent Report litter is visually and aesthetically unpleasant and constitutes a hazard both to human health (e.g. broken glass, used syringes) as well as to marine life (e.g. plastics and cigarette butts). The problem of litter accumulation along the Derwent’s foreshore has been cited as one of the community’s greatest concerns. There has been considerable community interest and activity centred on the clean-up of foreshore litter, through the annual Clean Up Australia Day program, efforts of local Coastcare groups, education, enforcement and clean-up.
