Annual Implementation Plan

The Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) operationalises the 4-year School Strategic Plan (SSP).

All schools must prepare an AIP each year which outlines how the school will implement the goals and key improvement strategies (KIS) that will be their focus for improvement in the coming year.

The AIP includes:

• SSP goals, targets and KIS selected for focus that year
• 12-month targets that track progress against 4-year targets
• actions that will be undertaken to implement the selected KIS
• intended outcomes of the actions (changes in knowledge, skills and behaviours) as well as success indicators that will be used to measure the outcomes
• the related activities that will be completed to achieve the outcomes, including resourcing, responsibility, and timelines for completion
• a funding planner including information on Equity Funding, Disability Inclusion Tier 2 Funding, and Schools Mental Health Fund
• a professional learning planner.

The AIP must be developed in Term 4 and endorsed by the senior education improvement leader (SEIL) and school council by the end of Term 1 the following year.

Schools are required to undertake mid-year monitoring and an end-of-year assessment of their progress in implementing the AIP. The end-of year assessment includes a self-evaluation against the Framework for Improving Student Outcomes (FISO) 2.0 continua of practice.

The AIP is developed and monitored within the Strategic Planning Online Tool (SPOT).

School leaders and school improvement teams (SITs) develop and monitor delivery of the AIP with input from staff and the broader school community as required.

School Strategic Plan

A School Strategic Plan is a 4-year plan for school improvement, completed by schools after their school review. The plan is based on the key directions recommended by the school review panel and an analysis of school performance data and evidence conducted during the review.

The School Strategic Plan:

• outlines the school's vision and values
• sets goals and targets for improved student outcomes
• lists the key improvement strategies that will help achieve these goals and targets
• is sensitive to local needs

Annual Report

The Annual Report provides an opportunity to share the school’s achievements and progress with the school community.
