Call to Arms - ACS LEOs I have met with representatives of the Ashford Lions Club very recently to discuss ways in which ‘Community Service’ can be facilitated with our students from 12 to 18 years old. The consensus of the meeting was that the school will embed the work we have commenced in our Flexi Future Focused Learning (FFFL) sessions to be linked with the great work of the Lions organisation. There are a variety of activities that we can consider to support our local community including: Gardening Small engines: (mower, whipper snipper) round up and repair sessions with local volunteers to

then move out into community doing lawns and gardens for those not able to or out of kindness.

Storytime: students go out and read to the elderly or in need in our community over a cup of tea and a chat go out or host in.

Crochet/knitting club: go out or host in: link to older or interested community members Fence building: timber or brick minor projects to boost student access to trade related

projects. Main street work: discuss progress on the main street with the Ashford Business Council. Who are LEOs? Leos are young people who want to make a difference. Aged between 12 and 30 years, Leos are the youngest members of Lions Clubs International.

They get together to deliver projects that will help to make the world a better place.

If you are interested in working with the LEOs outside of school, please contact the school and we will put you in touch with a Lions representative. The following link is to the Lions website for more information about the LEOs: https://lionsclubs.org.au/activities/youth/leos/ School Planning 2021-2024 Final Consultation: The school and community have effectively collaborated to produce a student-centred, academically focused school plan for the next four years. The final draft of the 2021-2024 ACS school plan is provided (following) and has been endorsed by the Staff, P&C and the Ashford AECG. This final consultation with all key stakeholders will conclude at Friday 26th of March. I will then publish the document.

LEOS serve their communities LEOS gain experience LEOS learn new skills LEOS have fun

LEOS make friends LEOS develop teams LEOS become leaders LEOS seize opportunities LEOS build a better future

School vision statement

Ashford Central School is committed to ensuring that all

students, teachers and leaders improve every year in an

educational environment where students, staff, parents

and community members are known, valued and cared

for. Our school stakeholders are mutually accountable to

achieving this vision and positively collaborate in school

engagement, decision-making and supporting the school

vision and plan.

School Context

Ashford Central School is a K-12 school, located in the

small rural community of Ashford which has a

population of 570. Students of Ashford Central School

are drawn from the township of Ashford and

surrounding district. Some of the students travel a

considerable distance to school by bus. Ashford is 57km

north of Inverell and 40km south of the Queensland

border. The total enrolment of Ashford Central School in

2021 is around 140 students. With approximately half in

each the primary and secondary departments.

The school context has shifted over the past 5 years due

to drought and an increased transient population. 40%

of our students identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait

Islander. Our families can live up to 35km from our

school and travel long distances during the week for

school, sport and other activities.

As a result of a situational analysis into our changing

school context, the school has identified the following

key areas for development:

1. Student Growth and Attainment in Reading and

Numeracy

2. Teacher Collaboration and Systematic Lesson

Delivery

3. Aboriginal Education

4. Building High Expectations and Aspirations

5. Student and Staff Wellbeing

numeracy. The evaluation of this

data will inform:

1. Evidence of impact on student

learning in reading and

numeracy.

2. Teaching strategies that

support differentiated student

learning needs.

3. Teacher professional learning

and resources.

Success criteria for this strategic direction

1. All teachers understand and

explicitly teach literacy and

numeracy to students, with

success that can be measured by

improved student progress and

achievement data. (SEF -

Professional Standards.

2. The school uses systematic and

reliable assessment information

to evaluate student learning over

time and implements changes in

teaching that lead to measurable

improvement. (SEF -

Assessement)

3. Student assessment data is

regularly used school-wide to

identify student achievements

and progress, in order to reflect

on teaching effectiveness and

inform future school directions.

(SEF - Data Skills and Use)

4. All staff and students can readily

observe Learning Goals, Success

Criteria and a Common Lesson

Sequence in classroom practice

across the school.

Evaluation Plan for this strategic

direction

QDAI - Evaluative Process

Strategic Direction 3: Wellbeing: Connect, Succeed and Thrive

Parents and students are advised that the school has bolstered its processes for tracking and following up on student attendance. The

work that has been undertaken to increase student attendance can be confronting at times but is essential. The current attendance rate of

the school is not at the state average and a key focus of our school plan. The school has taken as many positive measures as possible to

increase this rate including providing a free canteen voucher on Fridays. An example of some increased processes include:

The Principal personally receives a daily summary of every student that is late or absent each and every day.

If a student is not at school more than 85% of the time, a letter is generated.

If this attendance continues to be of concerns and not addressed, a second letter is sent home.

A 20-day individual tracking sheet is commenced by the Principal to monitor targeted students (this varies according to whether the

student is in Yr11 or 12).

Students and parents are contacted and plans are put in place, a Home School Liaison Officer is included in meetings

Finally, if attendance is continuing to track downwards, the Principal will contact and make a Child Wellbeing Report for Educational

Neglect – Habitual Absence.

Every Day Counts!

Contacting the school:

Please remember that if, for any reason, you need to contact the school, that our friendly office staff can assist you on 67254101. Any

concerns or questions around classroom activities or students should be directed to the classroom teacher in the first instance. Our

leadership team is more than happy to support your enquiry if you are unable to have this matter resolved with the teacher.

The school will continue to push through information and updates via the school Facebook page!

Rural Learning Exchange (RLE)

One of Ashford Central School's exciting initiatives this year is the Rural Learning Exchange (RLE), a newly-developed initiative aiming to network rural and remote schools together, providing access to quality curriculum programs. This highly-engaging and future focused program allows senior students and their teachers to collaborate with other experienced, quality teachers from all corners of the state. This year, senior Standard English and Mathematics students, as well as our wonderful teachers, Mr Kolarik and Ms Burton, are lucky enough to be a part of this exciting program! Facilitated and delivered by Julie Roberts, Kathy Howard, Katrina Shannon, Sharon Evans, and Helen Spencer, the RLE allows students to optimise their Stage 6 work, to share ideas with students across the state, and gain new insights and perspectives. The RLE program also provides frequent, highly-rewarding and beneficial professional learning opportunities for our English and Mathematics teachers to ensure our senior students are receiving the best, quality education possible. Students are able to interact using smart technologies, webcams and microphones, and real-life synchronous learning applications offered by the Department of Education. These sessions are recorded for students to revise, catch-up on work, or class-discussion as students get closer to their HSC Exams. These photos from our RLE teachers show these classes 'in action', as Julie Roberts provides real-time synchronous lessons to multiple schools over 1,000km apart! Thank you, Mr Kolarik and Ms Burton, for working with the Rural Learning Exchange in your deliverance of an exciting, quality, and technologically advanced curriculum delivery.
