Welcome
Welcome to the home page for Tasmanian government schools’ improvement reports.
I’m committed to the Government being open, accountable and transparent and this extends to our government schools. Earlier this year I made a commitment to release the most comprehensive educational performance data in Australia. This is phase two of that commitment. School Improvement Reports are focussing on improvement rather than simplistic league tables that only stigmatise or label schools.
By identifying areas where we can do more for our schools, we can improve our focus and direct resources to areas where there is most need.
The information provided is for individual school improvement during 2007 using the same priority areas described in the department’s Education Performance Report 2007. These areas are the early years, literacy and numeracy, student retention, school improvement and equity.

The information on this site reflects the progress of each school in the Government’s priority areas. Where schools have provided additional information you will have a more comprehensive picture of the school’s priorities and goals. In future reports I intend to add to this information by including the latest national literacy and numeracy test results, which are only available from the 2008 year of testing.
Schools fulfil many functions in the development of young Tasmanians and these reports will allow the community to see the great achievements and efforts being made to continually improve Tasmanian government schools.
