Term 2 Workshop: How do we prioritise our activities for improved education equity?

Join the Education Equity Alliance's School Network for an interactive workshop considering 'how do we prioritise our activites for improved education equity?'.

This workshop is for Principal-Class and Middle Leaders in Victorian low-SES schools (ICSEA below 1000).

We know that the work of achieving equity of outcomes for the young people in low-SES school contexts is significant - and that schools are constantly making important decisions about where to place limited time, energy and resources. 

Come together with colleagues to consider key priorities for improved equity in low-SES schools, including: raising expectations, ensuring a classroom culture for learning (including attendance), striking the balance of learning and wellbeing, and enabling the conditions for teachers to do their work.  

Participants will:

• Gain tools and a framework to support decision-making for improved equity​

• Develop clear next steps and actions to address challenges to equity​

• Connect with a community of colleagues working across Victorian low-SES schools
