SCHOOL VISION STATEMENT SCHOOL CONTEXT SCHOOL PLANNING PROCESS

Innovative digital T & L to maximise student engagement and achievement

Arthur Phillip High School (established 1875) is a city school, located right in the heart of the new Parramatta business and education precinct. The school population is diverse with more than 90% of students coming from non­English speaking backgrounds. There are over forty different cultures represented in the school population. The school has a long history of being a pioneer in the integration of technology into teaching and learning. As a leading technology school for more than a decade the school has developed a unique approach to personalising learning for every student. Five years ago, Arthur Phillip made a bold decision to embrace digital education. At the time, the Australian Government’s Digital Education Revolution (DER) provided all high school students in Years 9 ­ 12 with a laptop. The staff at Arthur Phillip built upon this initiative by creating an online, interactive digital learning environment for their teachers and students. In 2014, Arthur Phillip partnered with Google to provide Chromebooks and Apps to every student, moving its entire digital learning platform to the cloud. The digital units our teachers created provided our students with a clear outline of each topic and then presented the content and concepts involved in a variety of ways. Explanations, diagrams, videos, maps and other multimedia resources allowed teachers to demonstrate and explore concepts clearly and helped students to engage and learn in their own way. The units contained group tasks, individual challenges, projects and extension activities. We were very aware that digital learning is more than connecting to and reporting on content. It involves critical thinking, design and participation. And requires teachers to provide direction, to moderate and to provide feedback. Therefore, these units of work also contained interactive simulations and scenarios for students to explore and analyse, as well as digital tasks specially designed by their teachers for them to complete.

The plan was developed by staff, students and parents. The implementation of the school plan will be monitored by the school executive and will be evaluated each term. The school’s executive will have direct responsibility and accountability for the implementation of the school plans and their evaluation.

Strategic Direction 1: Digital Learning

PURPOSE PEOPLE PROCESSES PRODUCTS & PRACTICES

Why do we need this particular strategic direction and why is it important? To develop and implement quality curriculum and assessment that is differentiated, innovative and creative in an online environment. To link all digital learning to the National Curriculum across the KLAs. To have all students access a device to encourage and engage students in their learning. To develop project based learning. To provide opportunity for parents to engage with their child’s online learning.

How do we develop capabilities of our people to bring about transformation? Senior Executive Team: Monitor the quality, frequency and implementation of online learning for Yrs 7 – 10. Ensure that HTs are implementing an equitable workload for teachers in the development of units of online work for Yrs 7 – 10. Digital Learning Team: Assist the development and implementation of digital learning that aligns with the National Curriculum and differentiating the course work to cater to the learning needs of students.
