******************

To the Girton Grammar School community

We are pleased to present the Strategic Plan for Girton Grammar School for the period 2023 – 2028.

The Strategic Plan is intended to drive the school forward with confidence and provide the entire Girton community with an assurance that the future needs and aspirations of students and staff will be met through relevant and intentional investment in human and financial resources.

The Girton Grammar School Strategic Plan provides a broad five-year vision for the continuation of high standards of educational service and areas for school improvement. It is intended to provide the strategic anchor for the successful operation of the school and is structured on the four pillars of strategic intent articulated in the Mission and Values document, upon which the school’s mission of striving for excellence in all endeavours is founded.

Overall, the Plan provides for a rigorous curriculum that supports excellent academic outcomes, coupled with support for alternative learning pathways for students who are not undertaking the VCE. The Plan is based on a desire to prepare the next generation for their lives as adults in a rapidly evolving world.

The Plan identifies five priority areas of school enhancement that will be supported with actions via an Implementation Plan currently being compiled within the school.

The Plan has been formulated by members of the Girton Grammar School Board, in consultation with the Acting Head and Senior Leadership Team, and with input from students, staff and parents. Thank you to those in our school community who have provided valuable input to shape this important document.

The Plan is flexible enough to accommodate the latest educational research and thinking. It is also sufficiently high-level to adapt strategic aims that may be impacted by demographic trends, economic climate, and other influences not within the school’s control.

We commend the 2023 – 2028 Girton Grammar School Strategic Plan to all members of our school community.

Yours sincerely

Mr David Jemmett
Chair

And
