In October 2016, visits focused on the Hervey Bay — Maryborough area, and in May 2017, schools in the city of Logan were visited. The Board was sorry to farewell one member this past year. The Reverend Canon Leonard Nairn OAM joined the Board on 18 July 2013 and served as a nominee of the Minister until July 2016. During this period, his constructive and thoughtful approach was manifested on many occasions and he made a significant contribution to the work of the Board.
On 9 February 2017, Mrs Helen Royan was appointed to the Board as a nominee of the Minister and brought with her a wealth of experience as an educator.
The Board and Funding Committee continue to carry out their legislative functions in a changing environment. This year several amendments were made to the Education (Accreditation of Non-State Schools) Act 2001 (Accreditation Act) and the Education (Accreditation of Non-State Schools) Regulation 2001 (Accreditation Regulation), which relate to the collection and retention of school survey data. At this time, there are significant legislative reforms on the horizon for the Board. When enacted, these changes will bring a more streamlined accreditation process and significant changes in the process of determining eligibility for government funding for non-state schools. The Board, together with representatives of the non-state schools community, were invited to participate in consultation with government about these proposed amendments. The Board and its Secretariat will have a busy year to come, as these changes are operationalised. Members look forward to maintaining productive relationships with governing bodies and non-state schools as they continue their work, supporting high quality educational communities achieving positive learning outcomes for their students.

Queensland demography The population of Queensland has more than doubled in 40 years. The state’s population has increased from 2.09 million people in 1976 to 4.85 million in 2016, which amounts to an increase of 2.76 million or 132 per cent. In the 30 years from 2016 to 2046, the population is expected to grow by another 3.0 million to 7.84 million (medium series projection). This represents a growth of approximately 62 per cent over 30 years. By 2061, the population in Queensland is expected to reach 9.56 million (medium series projection). Compared with the population in 2016, Queensland is expected to have another 4.7 million people in 2061 (medium series projection). Figure 2 shows the population growing from 4.85 million in 2016 to 9.56 million in 2061 (medium series). The high and low series represent a range of likely alternative population growth scenarios.

This is an increase of 634,044 over 45 years. This growth in Queensland’s population translates into an increased need for educational services for students up to the age of 17 years. Figures 4 and 5 (both overleaf) show the number of Queensland children and young people (aged 5 years to 11 years and 12 years to 17 years respectively) grew by 225,739 in total in the 25 years between 1991 and 2016. In the 25 years between 2016 and 2041, a further increase of 333,894 is expected. In the 20 years between 2041 and 2061, an increase of 300,151 is forecast, reaching 1,454,735 by 2061 (medium series).

Feedback from clients on performance The Board sought written feedback from all applicants (that is, governing bodies) for which a Board decision was made during the reporting period.
Each applicant was asked by email to provide feedback through an online questionnaire for each application lodged. The questionnaire was deliberately kept to seven questions so as to require a minimal amount of time for respondents to complete. Respondents were also invited to provide comments beyond the set questions.
Respondents were not required to identify themselves, however the majority included identifying details in the optional section of the questionnaire. Twenty-four governing bodies, which covered 26 applications, were approached for feedback, with responses being received from nine. Table 10 (overleaf) gives an overview of responses.

Appendix M Non-state schools operating at 30 June 2017 Explanatory notes: 1. This appendix lists all operating non-state schools in Queensland at 30 June 2017, and gives the location of those schools, the type of education and year levels for which the school is provisionally accredited or accredited, and the name of the school’s governing body. 2. For type of education, the marker Prov indicates the school is provisionally accredited for that education type. 3. Even though a school is provisionally accredited or accredited for a particular type of education or year levels, the school may not be offering that education type or those year levels. This may be for a number of reasons, including: (i) being provisionally accredited but the relevant student-intake day has not yet happened, or (ii) being accredited but the school has made a decision not to offer part of or all of the education type for a short period of time. 4. Where a school is described as multi-site, it indicates that the school operates from more than one site. The first site listed for a multi-site school is the host centre. The subsequently listed sites are associated facilities. Only sites that have commenced operation are included. 5. Persons interested in the program offerings of particular schools should contact the schools directly.
