Workshop Description

The SACE Board has begun a stakeholder engagement process to support future changes to the SACE that align with the Thrive Strategic Plan. Regardless of the opportunities that your school has been able to be part of during this phase, most of the initiatives have advanced to the point where up-to-date knowledge of what is happening is increasingly important. In addition, there is also a need to constantly update our thinking on how our schools can provide flexibility in the delivery of the SACE.

This workshop will offer a time for Catholic school Teaching and Learning leaders to come together, learn, discuss and have input into our collective future regarding the SACE, via an opportunity to work with Chief Executive of the SACE Board, Martin Westwell and senior SACE Board staff – Hassan Mekawy, Peter Nielsen and Adele Broster.

Core FOCI and Priorities

• Engaging with the Flexibilities of the SACE and the Thrive Strategy
