4 If the opportunity arises for more collaboration for staff in the learning areas.
As the data seems to suggest greater collaboration needs to be a feature of our growth as
4 leaders within the school.
2 Staff wellbeing needs to be a focus area
I believe that individual teachers need to be targeted and supported in developing thier
4 leadership skills.
In reference to slide 5 of Catherine's PowerPoint - PLC Groupings, choose option 1 so that
staff are given the opportunity to nominate which group they belong to - that way they

Staff need to know how their role contribute to the big picture and the strategic direction
of the college, unpack this more at the staff individual review time. We need to improve

Continue with Staff Voice and look at further ways for staff to be included in the decision

3 Listen …. really listen and take things on board.
Greater collaboration and transparency between staff groups affected by decisions.
Effective liaising between staff on consultation of decision making and management
4 where staff are concerned.
Empowerment - Continued affirmation and opportunities for collaborative leadership,
5 particularly not in the areas of structured leadership.
6 none
A whole school focus which streamlines our current approach to a few key areas of
effective leadership and communication between staff and administration. Perhaps more
consultation with staff who have recently joined our setting from another, would be
3 beneficial, to explain our approach, but also to listen to alternative approaches.
