TENNANT CREEK PRIMARY SCHOOL
2014
Annual Performance Report to the School Community
An Engaging Urban Students School
Tennant Creek Primary School
School Overview
Our School
Tennant Creek Primary School is a large, remote, primary school providing pre and primaryschool education for Tennant Creek and the Mungkarta Homeland Centre. Our aim is to
offer a comprehensive education to a student cohort which comes from widely diverse
backgrounds. Our focus is always on attendance, literacy and numeracy but we offer a huge
variety of other programs that are aimed at making our school a place where students wantto be. We are an Accelerated
Literacy (AL) school and are
constantly developing school
programs that support andenhance AL. We see ourselves
as a full service school: We pick
students up in the morning
and take them home after
school. We supply breakfast,recess and lunch to students
through a comprehensive
nutrition program,
Our students
In 2014 we had an average
enrolment of 402 students.
The average attendance over
the year was 69% and the average attendance of our Indigenous students, who make up
73% of our school population, was 63%.
Our Staff
In 2014 our staff
included the Principal,
Assistant Principal,three Senior Teachers,
16 primary class
teachers, a preschool
teacher and five
specialist teachers. In
addition we serviced
Mungkarta Homelands
Centre with a
Transition to Year 6
classroom teacher.
Whole school teaching
support staff included three specialist teachers for science, the arts and history, a Special
Tennant Creek Primary School
Education teacher and two teachers for the Positive Learning Centres in the school. We also
shared a School Nurse and School Councillor with Tennant Creek High School. All teachers
held the necessary and relevant teaching qualification to carry out their duties and were
registered with the Teacher Registration Board of the Northern Territory.
Our administration staff
consisted of an
Administration Manager, an
AIEW, a Special Education
Assistant, four administrative
support staff, two AssistantTeachers and a maintenance
officer. Through our
Government Equity funding
and School Council funding
we employed a further 31
support staff in positions
including classroomassistants, individual tutors,
nutrition program staff and
crossing attendant.
Our Community
Our school community takes in children from
across Tennant Creek. We also attract
students from other communities in the
Barkly who attend the Primary School when
they are in Tennant Creek with their families,
A School and Community Partnership
Agreement was negotiated and signed off in
2013. This remained in place in 2014 and
helped formalise the strong support we
enjoy from our community and the
partnerships we have developed with local
Indigenous organisations.

Principal's Report
I would like to firstly acknowledge the immense support provided during 2014 by our
Chairperson, Susan Wright and all School Council members who have contributed many
hours of their time to support and guide all we do. It has been a year of highlights and
challenges.
I want to congratulate all our staff and students for their contribution and efforts during the
year. Working in a school in any community has many complexities however as a combinedgroup we have achieved some positive outcomes in 2014.
We had a major focus on
improving our teachingpractices as a whole
school with the
implementation of Visible
Learning (VL) andAccelerated Literacy (AL)
practices by all teachers.
A focus on student Well-
Being and Behaviour has
enabled new policies and
practices to beimplemented. There
were two Positive
Learning Centres' created
to support behaviourally
challenged students and
a Behaviour Specialist who provided support for staff and students, Teachers have engaged
in a variety of professional learning experiences to improve what we do in supportingstudents to be active learners.
Our Visible Learning Impact Coaches have led the ongoing implementation of Visible
Learning in the school. Teachers were involved in having their lessons critiqued by
themselves and their peers. This focus on VL and AL will continue in 2015 so that we become
the best teachers we can for ALL students.
There have been many highlights which include Sport and Swimming Carnival Days, ourstudent's engagement in a range of sports locally, at intra- school carnivals and at interstate
competitions. Parents and teachers have all year supported students to participate in a
range of sporting activities locally and on trips away from our community particularly with
Athletics, Cricket, Football, including the Port Adelaide Willpower Program, Netball and Bin
Ball. Our students were well behaved, liked and respected and displayed good
sportsmanship skills. This is a real credit to all families and our wider community. I would like
Tennant Creek Primary School
to acknowledge the many businesses and individuals who have helped to fundraise for
students to attend sporting experiences throughout 2014,
Other fundraising highlights were the School Fete ($5470), Breakfast with the Stars and Book
Fair ($6129) Family Fun Day ($1800)School Concert ($3400)and Centrecorp who supportedstudents to attend
the Year 6
Educational Futures
Trip to Darwin
($6000).
Thank you to the
parents and carers
who supported the
Preschool with
fundraising, workingbees and
improvements to
the Preschool
learning areas. A
grant was secured
to upgrade the
toilets and the
kitchen area to
meet the national compliance standards.
Congratulations to our Mungkarta Parents and Teaching staff who delivered a key noteaddress at the Indigenous Educator Conference in November and were very well received,
Mungkarta Class had the top student attendance in 2014.
There were several positive initiatives to engage students in 2014 and offer a diverse range
of opportunities for them to explore new interests and strengths-:
• Bluearth Program
• a successful gymnastic week with the NT Gymnastic Coach
• a tennis clinic
• the Year 6 Educational Futures trip to Darwin
• Constable Warrior and Constable Shields visits to improve behavior, learn about
cyber bullying and their fun discos
• Vibe 3 on 3 Challenge Day
• Anzac Commemoration Assembly, the Friday Elective Program
• The Dance Program with Lamb
• Tennant's Got Talent Day and Celebration Day
• Year 6 Graduation Extravaganza
• Annual School Concert in Desert Harmony Week
• Winanjjikari Music Sessions for Students and The Barkly Boys concert
• Anyinginyi Men's Centre sessions for boys
Tennant Creek Primary School
• Warumungu Language and Cultural lessons, Reconciliation Day and NAIDOC Day
were also highlights where all children have learned more about Indigenous culture
to build positive relationships and understandings
Support from the Health Department, Anyinginyi Congress and our Regional Office
Consultants enabled students to receive free dental checks, ear and eye testing, health care,
and psychological and intellectual assessment of students with high needs requiring
specialist care. 15 students now attract SESP funding to support their learning needs.
The Remote Attendance Improvement Strategy has enabled a positive relationship to be
developed with Papulu Appar Kari (Language Centre) staff where the 'yellow shirt' officers
have helped engage poor attenders in schooling and talk with families about ways to
improve school participation.
Other community partnership initiatives included the PACE program, Julilikari's 'Red Shirt'
Support Initiative and the FAST program. These have developed greater community
engagement so parents and carers take an active role in their children's learning, A new
parent room was established by the PACE team. The positive partnership with staff, parents
and community was important for student learning and the support of many outside
agencies was greatly appreciated.
The School Canteen
team has done an
awesome job in
organizing thenutrition program
which enables everychild to have
wholesome and
cheap meals each
day. Their tireless
efforts and friendly
attitude are
admirable and
ensure students
have a positive start
to their day.
We fare welled
several long term
staff who have gone on leave for various reasons; Kristin Doyle, Tash Civitarese, Jacquie
Lyster, Nurse Mel and Denise Mitchell who did a sterling in their roles throughout the year.
Finally I would like to thank everyone in our school community for their contribution
towards making our school a better place. I know we face many challenges but together weare achieving some positive outcomes.
Tennant Creek Primary School
Teaching and Learning
The school has developed strategies that focus on whole school assessment moving away
from individual teacher accountability to whole school all staff accountability for individual
student learning. This development has come about as a result of the extensive data
received through the Accelerated Literacy program (now in its eighth year) and the data
received from the introduction of NAPLAN testing. Now in its fifth year, the school based
Genre/Writing program has also been invaluable. These initiatives have led us to thedevelopment of a whole School Literacy Document,
2014 Initiatives/Directions
The school's literacy and numeracy programs align with the new Australian Curriculum and
extensive use has been made of the Curriculum to Classroom documents in achieving this as
well as the Multiple Year Level documents developed in the Northern Territory.
In 2014 Tennant Creek
Primary School took part
in the Visible Learning
initiative being run across
Central Australia. This
initiative, based on the
research of John Hattie,
focusses on identifyingwhat works in the
classroom and why it
works. Visible Learning
uses data collected in the
classroom as a means of
driving classroom
improvement. The school
will be using twice yearly
assessments in 2014 to
provide further information on the progress of our students and to help identify gaps in
individual student learning.
The school also continued to see the benefits of the Accelerated Literacy program in terms
of whole school literacy development. To date this program has seen significant results
across the school. This progress has been a result of explicit teaching methodologies which
have only been achieved due to significant Professional Development and support fromschool based Coordinators.
NAPLAN Participation and Results
2014 saw the NAPLAN participation rates fall back when compared to 2013. This meant that
fewer students took the test than in the previous year and that may have had an effect on
Tennant Creek Primary School
the data. The table below summarises student results in Years 3 and 5 and compares them
to those achieved in 2013. (Full NAPLAN results are attached in Appendix B).

The Year 3 results were slightly lower than in the previous year except for Spelling wherethere was a small improvement. The 'School Mean' figure hides the fact that 68% of our Year
3 students either met or exceeded National Minimum Standards for Spelling while 61% met
or exceeded National Minimum Standards for Numeracy. This reflects two of the School's
focus area but also shows that we need to catch our students up in the other key areas.
Most of the growth was seen in Year 5 where there were improvements in four of the five
areas - most noticeably in the Numeracy test and the writing test. Again the 'School Mean'
figure disguises the fact that more than half our students met or exceed National Minimum
Standards in Numeracy, Reading, Spelling and Writing - only just missing out in Grammar.
Tennant Creek Primary School continued to take part in the Visible Learning project in 2014,
receiving advice on teaching and learning from leading academics led by Prof John Hattie.
The data gathered through internal standardised testing show that significant gains were
made in Years 1 and 2 in 2014 as a result techniques used in the classroom. This should see
improved results in the Year 3 NAPLAN tests in 2015. Similar techniques focusing on explicit
teaching should see a further improvement in the Year 5 results in 2015.
The support made
available through the
Engaging UrbanStudents Smarter
School National
Partnership grant hasfurther enabled the
school to provide
focused support and
individualisedprogramming for thoseworking below
benchmark support for
those achieving above
benchmark.
Wellbeing
Enrolment and Attendance
In 2014 average enrolment increased fell to 402 from the previous year's figure of 432. The
average attendance for the year was 69.0%, again showing little change from the previous
year's 69.3%. In this period the enrolment of Indigenous students fell from 306 to 293 with
the average attendance for our Indigenous students rising to 63.0%.
The following activities and special events are ongoing from year to year and act to engagemore students in attendance and participation at the school:
• Student Representative Council
including House Captains
• School Concert •
• NAIDOCDay
• Celebration Day
• Breakfast with the Stars
• Two week swimming and water
safety program
• Sports Day
• Weekly Clontarf sessions
• Year 6 Excursion to Darwin
• Year 6 Graduation
and CDSong writing
production.
workshop
The following long running programs alsocontinued:
• Daily school bus services
• Nutrition program
• Meet the teacher afternoons
• Class presentations
• First aid courses with the school
nurse and St John staff
• Preparation for Puberty
Perhaps the most important program we conduct is the Nutrition Program which feeds on
average 170 students a day. The school works hard to keep the cost of the program down
while supplying nutritious food.
Tennant Creek Primary School
Participation, Transitions and Pathways
Remote School Attendance Strategy
The School welcomed the federally funded Remote School Attendance Strategy in 2014.The
program was operated in the Barkly by Papulu Apparr-Kari (PAK) and helped to strength tiesbetween this school and other schools in the Barkly. The program will take time to bed in
and we are very pleased that the funding for this program will continue into 2015. As part of
the Memorandum of Understanding between the School and PAK, provides each weekday
morning the PAK School Attendance Supervisor and PAK School Attendance Officers to assist
with agreed activities at the school, PAK also provides invaluable assistance with school
special activities such as sports carnivals, special assemblies to help build positiverelationships with school children and their families. The attendance strategy has been a
great help to the
school and we have
all become familiar
with the Yellow Shirts
both around town
and in the school.
Student Movement
Student mobility - as
measured by thenumber of students
enrolling and leavingthe school
increased markedly in2014 and this brought
its own problems,
Many of thesestudents were those
attending Tennant
Creek Primary while their families were in town for short periods of time. During 2014
student turnover stood at 90% for the year as a whole. This compares with 62% in 2013 -
which was itself an increase when compared to previous years.
The school is aware that there are always going to be families and students moving through
the region and, in common with other schools in the Barkly, we continue to see a high
degree of student mobility. Out of a total enrolment of 402, the School saw 355 students
arrive and 288 leave. Many of these students moved between Tennant Creek and other
Barkly communities and the figures include those who left, returned and re-enrolled.
Traditionally our Year 6 students make the transition to the Middle School campus of Barkly
College with some leaving for schools in Alice Springs or further afield. Anecdotal evidence
continues to suggest that the creation of the Clontarf Academy and the Stronger Sisters
Tennant Creek Primary School
program, based at Barkly College, have helped smooth the transition to middle school and
improved student retention.
Age of Entry - One Transition Intake
The Preschool forms a vital part of ensuring that children are ready to start in the Transition
Class, The Preschool teacher and her team do amazing work with children who come to her
with a wide variety of needs and degrees of school readiness. This really is a vital part of
schooling.
The Positive Learning Centre
The Positive Learning Centre was created in Term 4 of 2013 to provide a welcoming andfocussed environment for students at risk either because of low attendance or for
behavioural reasons. This centre continued in 2014 and a second, Junior PLC for those in
Years 2-4 was added with the aim of providing a supporting environment in which gaps in
student learning could be identified and rectified.
Graduating Year 6 Students and Friendly Faces
The Friendly Faces program was again active in 2014, making good use of our continued
close links with the Barkly College Middle School campus. During the last term all Year 6
students have at least three full days on the other campus where they became part of
normal classes. This immersion in the school culture gives the students a very good idea of
how the school works
and what to expect in
Year 7. Groups of Year
7 students (last year's
graduates) also cameto school to talk of
their experiences in
Middle School.
Engaging Urban
Students
In 2014 we continued
to be an EngagingUrban Students School
with access to funding
that could be used to
encourage attendance
and participation of all students in our community. The transition points between the phasesof learning continued to be a particular focus. Our aim was to ensure that students were
ready for school on entering Transition and that those who had reached the end of Year 6
were equipped to continue with their schooling in Year 7.
Other projects included engaging visiting artists to conduct music and song writing
workshops, school-wide behaviour support, child protection training and supporting families
through our nutrition program. This program has had a major positive impact on the way toget students to school and keep them focussed on their own learning while they are here.
Tennant Creek Primary School
Partnerships
The School Community Partnership Agreement was negotiated and put in place for 2013.
This partnership represents an ongoing commitment between the school and its Indigenous
Community to work together to better support the education of Indigenous children and
young people. The Agreement sets out a range of actions to improve these links and to
further support Indigenous students through actions derived from the school's Strategic
Improvement Plan and Annual Operating Plan.
This formal partnership has added a further dimension to our existing partnerships with
organisations in Tennant Creek. As a result of these partnerships we are able to offer
students a wide range of educational experiences and to further the important concept that
our school is central to the community.
We are pleased that our school was able to maintain its very strong relationship with Barkly
Arts - something most evident during the Desert Harmony Festival. The school continued to
enjoy the benefits of our sporting partnerships both within the community and from further
afield. These included the Clontarf Academy, Auskick, Barkly Australian Football League, MiloCricket, and Cricket Central Australia. Major School - Community Events in 2014 included the
School Concert,
Breakfast with the
Stars during Literacy
and Numeracy
Week and the
ongoing HistoryGarden Project.
Parent and
Community
Engagement
The partnership
formed with the
Parent and
Community
Engagement project
(PACE) was of majorbenefit to the school
in 2014, particularly in the second half of the year. Through PACE school pamphlets with
frequently asked questions were translated into Warumungu, Warlpiri and Alyawarra.
School posters promoting the Concert, Breakfast with the Stars and the School Fete were
also translated into these languages. The result was a major increase in attendance and
involvement in these activities from across the whole community. The PACE led survey into
student and family perceptions also helped us to pin-point areas of need in the school.
Tennant Creek Primary School
Leadership
Staffing numbers at the end of 2014 stood at 37. This included 11 DoE support staff,
including administrative officers and classroom assistants, and 22 teachers. In terms of
teaching staff we
maintained a staff
retention rate of 73%
when comparing thefirst term of 2014 to the
last term of 2014.
As can be seen in the
table below, providing
quality, targetedprofessional
development
opportunities was again
a major focus in 2014.
Much of this focus was
on the Visible Learninginitiative which the
whole school
participated in. This
level of professional development is essential if we are to enable our staff to continue to
develop as quality educators and to bring new knowledge and techniques into the classroomin order to further improve the educational outcomes for our students. Attendance for a
number of these courses was funded thanks to the Engaging Urban Students School.

W© th©refore have. no choice but to continue the Issuance of a qualification on thisaudit due to this.
Receipting
The only other qualification was a very minor qualification express&d In the auditreport Is in regard to receipting which, when It comes to cash, will always be sininherent systemic Issue, although we provide the following as a oontlnuat means offurther improving the quality and standard of record keeping :

Our procedures Inolucied ©XQminatton, on atest basis, of evidsnce supporting ths amounts and other disclosures in the Reportand th© ©valuation of accounting policiss and significant accounting estimates. Theseprocedures have been undertaken to form an opinion as to whether, in all materialrespects, the Financial Report is presented fairly In accordance with AustralianStatements of Accounting Concepts and Accounting Standards and other statutoryrequirements, so as to present a view of the School Counoil which Is consistent withour understanding of Its financial position and the results of its operations.
The audit opinion expressed In this report has been formed on the above basis,
QUALinCATION
It was not practicablQ for controls to be sstabllshed over receipts, other than for GrantFunding and Investment Income, prior to their receipt and entry into Ihe accountingrecords. Accordingly, It was not practicable for our examination of these areas toextend beyond amounts recorded,
Furthermore, internal NT Government adjustments previously made to th© generalledger and subsequent Internal accounts of the Tennant Creek Primary Schoolcontinue to Impact on our ability to provide assurances.
Adjustments made in prior years from assets appearing with prior period purchasedates, depreciation lntroduo©d where previously this was spQclflcaIly against policyand procedure, and new accounts introduced Info the general ledger by the NTGovernment providing no guidance as to their accounting treatment continue tocreate these difficulties for us auditors.
We continue to qualify the audit due to these "Prior Year Adjustments" and "PolicyChange Adjustments" Impacts.

When comparing NAPLAN results from year to year, it is important to consider several technical aspects to test if any differences in the results are real.One way to do this is to calculate 'confidence inten/als' which describe how confident we are that the result is an accurate estimate,In the follovring graphs 2009-2014 comparisons are shown with the'confidence intervals'as error bars at the top of each graph.As a general rule of thumb, where confidence intervals overiap, average scores should not be considered as statistically different, i.e. they should be considered to be the same.
Note: In 2011, students were required to complete a persuasive writing task. This is a change from previous years (2010 and prior) when students were required to write a narrative or story.Due to this change in genre, post 2010 Writing results should not be compared to previous years.
