About this project
All Australian students should have the opportunity to learn and develop to their full potential.
The Australian Education Research Organisation (Â鶹Éç) has undertaken research to provide practical guidance for school leaders to improve student learning outcomes through effective school strategic plans.
Research suggests that simply having a school strategic plan isn’t enough – the quality of these plans is positively associated with student performance and achievement.
Â鶹Éç conducted a literature review to understand the features of an effective school strategic plan. We then collaborated with to translate the findings into a series of 4 practice guides that step school leaders through the process of developing and applying effective strategic plans.
These guides were developed with input from school leaders, school system and sector officials, a principal peak body and a school strategic planning expert. Â鶹Éç is grateful to everyone who dedicated their time to assist with the development of each guide.
