Staff in our schools

This consultation has concluded.

Currently the mix of roles in a school is largely determined by a one size fits all formula based on student numbers and is administered centrally. This leaves schools with very little flexibility to design both the teaching and support roles to meet student needs.

The ability to create a staffing mix to maximise outcomes for the current cohort of students will ensure that all of our resources are directed to where they will most improve teaching and learning.

We want to improve our processes so that:

• The needs of students drive the mixture of staff, including teaching, leadership and support positions.
• The culture of professional, quality teaching is enhanced because principals have increased local authority to make decisions about teacher performance, professional learning and program delivery.
• Principal salary and classification are linked to school complexity not just student numbers.
