2 Message from Most Reverend Michael McKenna Bishop of Bathurst

This year, the Australian Catholic churches are celebrating a “Year of Youth”. It began last December with the very successful Australian Catholic Youth Festival which I attended with young people from across our local church. They were a lively and engaged group and brought back gifts of faith, hope and love to their schools and parishes.

The Festival included opportunities for the participants to interact with bishops in various forums on the realities and promise of being young and Catholic today. We are planning something similar for our next clergy conference in Bathurst. I hope that the priests, deacons and young people there will learn from one another as together we commit to live our mission better.

In these events, the co-operation of our Catholic schools has been invaluable. And I thank Mrs Jenny Allen and her team at CEDB, the principals, staff and students for making so many good things happen. It reminds us that our Catholic schools are here to educate the whole person: body, mind and soul. That work is intrinsic to our mission.

In October this year, Pope Francis will convene the Synod of Bishops on the topic “Young People, the Faith and Vocational Discernment”. It is not treating young people as consumers, but as disciples called to work for the sharing of the Good News about Jesus and the coming of his Kingdom. In the Diocese of Bathurst, we have already participated in preliminary surveys and look forward to seeing this international activity take shape.

Once again, I give thanks and ask God’s richest blessings on all who support our schools. I think of the families who entrust their children to be educated in them and give them practical help. I think of our Catholic Education Council, who provide me with their expertise and wisdom on all aspects of this vital work for the Church. And I think of our priests, whose work, both spiritual and administrative, for the schools of their parishes often goes unnoticed and unacknowledged, but not by me.

Asking the prayers of Our Lady of the Central West, St Patrick and St Mary of the Cross, that God may bless our works and make them prosper.

+ Michael McKennaBishop of Bathurst

Message from Mr Paul Crennan 3 Chair, Diocesan Catholic Education Council

The delivery of educational services requires attention to governance and accountability. The Diocesan Catholic Education Council (DCEC) is one part of the multi-layered governance structure for Catholic Education Diocese of Bathurst (CEDB).

The DCEC draws its strength from the dedication and the broad range of skills of its members. Meetings of the Council and its subcommittees involve time and careful consideration at a strategic level in the areas of faith, learning and stewardship.

In 2017 changes in the financial methodology for CEDB announced in 2016 commenced in operation. Needs based funding of schools in line with the focus of Government was and continues in the equitable principles upon which funding is allocated by CEDB for schools within the Diocese.

Budgeting in CEDB commences with the identification of the needs of individual schools, which are in turn based upon the educational needs of the students. School enrolments are a critical driver of funding. To maintain and to increase enrolments is important, not only financially but also as an indicator of a healthy system of schooling which is attractive to families in the Diocese.

The support of families in the Diocese is critical to maintaining the place of Catholic education within the overall education system in Australia. It is recognised in this modern era that there are numerous choices available to families in the education of their children.

Quality education is delivered in our schools with the application of modern educational principles, continuing professional development for our educators and engagement with parents in the education of their children.

CEDB system strategies operating within faith, learning and stewardship are under continuing review. The DCEC meetings receive reports on the progress towards the achievement of system strategies from the CEDB leadership group. Critical to the analysis is the contribution which is identified as having been achieved towards the Annual Improvement Plan.

Proper stewardship of resources also means that with existing Government funding levels, Catholic schools within the Diocese of Bathurst, are not under threat of significant school fee increases.

CEDB looks forward to families supporting Catholic education in the Diocese understanding the commitment that CEDB gives to them in the delivery of quality Catholic education in an affordable way, with the students at the focus of all that we do.

4 Message from Mrs Jenny Allen Executive Director of Schools

Within our overarching theme Encounter, Achieve, Flourish our thirty three school communities continued their ongoing journey throughout 2017 of striving, with Jesus Christ as our inspiration and guide, to provide high quality Catholic education.

Their efforts in support of this vision were enthusiastically celebrated at our inaugural Diocesan Showcase held at St Mary’s Catholic School Wellington in July. The day commenced with a keynote address by Professor Stephen Dinham followed by a series of thirteen workshops facilitated by teachers for a gathering of 235 staff. The final plenary session inclusive of parents and students was a reflection of the importance our schools give to student voice and the partnership between home and school.

That event, along with the deepening of the Professional Learning Communities culture in our schools, resonates with John Hattie’s research which reminds us that the greatest effects on student learning occur when teachers become learners of their own teaching and when students become their own teachers.

In our desire to be both great schools and great Catholic schools, the current national focus on the formation needs of staff was reflected in the development during 2017 of our CEDB Faith Formation Framework, The Joy of Missionary Discipleship. It was wonderful synergy to be commencing the implementation phase of the framework as the Year of Youth began in December 2017. The joyous attendance of over 130 students, along with teachers, priests, seminarians and Bishop Michael McKenna at the Australian Catholic Youth Festival in Sydney was also a positive culminating activity in our diocesan 2017 Youth Plan.

All CEDB activity aligns with the three pillars of our mission statement: Faith, Learning, Stewardship. 2017 was another year of extensive and focussed activity in the stewardship/enabling dimension of our work. A raft of activity occurred to ensure that we are implementing contemporary system wide standards, policies, processes and technologies.

My deep appreciation is extended to our school leaders, school and office based staff and to the members of the Diocesan Catholic Education Council and its committees for all that occurred in 2017 in support of our mission and vision. I trust that it has been a richly rewarding experience. In partnership with family and parish, our combined efforts have all been directed towards each and every student and our hope for them to encounter Christ and to achieve and flourish in their wonderful uniqueness.

Moving Forward:On release of the HSC Merit Lists by the end of 2017, all schools conducted an initial response to the HSC data and these responses were then submitted to the Consultant to Schools.

In February/March, meetings were organised with school leadership teams, Consultant to Schools and Consultant to Schools: Quality Systems and Services to explore the following:

a. Data Overview and the questions that framed the analysis;

b. the patterns that emerged (not judgements); hypothesis and hunches in relation to the data results – the meaning for the school team in relation to the results;

national Assessment Program Literacy and numeracy

Diocese of Bathurst system report for 2017The continued system-wide focus on Leading Learning aims to maximise valued learning outcomes for every student.

An increased understanding of student achievement data has been driven by the growing understanding that intelligent data use can improve learning outcomes of our students. Effective data analysis enables us to understand our students’ learning needs; informs teacher professional learning; and provides evidence of progress toward specified goals and targets. As such, it is an essential component of our school improvement Quality Catholic Education (QCE) framework.

One important source of student achievement data is that derived from external assessments such as the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) at Years 3, 5, 7 and 9.

NAPLAN data provides us with another opportunity to reflect on our strategic intent of enabling high levels of learning for all students.

Our 2017 NAPLAN data reveals that on top of strong NAPLAN performance system wide, a number of our schools have recorded improved results, many of those for the second year in a row.

Our teachers working within and across schools to collaborate on analysis of data and strategies to facilitate truly engaging learning for students is one of the hallmarks of our Catholic education system, along with our pastoral care and unique understanding of the God-given dignity of each child.

For the seventh successive year, schools from across the Diocese of Bathurst have performed above both the State and national average – in many areas, in each grade.

The following positives are worthy of note:

• In Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 the percentage of students in the bottom two bands was significantly less than both the state and national figures in all components of the NAPLAN tests

• In Years 3, 5, 7 & 9 the system average mean for writing is significantly above both the state and national figure

• In Year 3 the percentage of students in the top two bands was above both state and national figures in all components of the NAPLAN tests

• Our greatest strength across the diocese in all year levels is reading

• Year 3 are consistently performing well above state data in reading, writing, grammar and punctuation and numeracy, indicating our early years work is having great success across the system, including in our state action plan schools

• Year 5 are sitting on or above state average in all areas, with a strength in reading

• Year 7 are sitting on or above state average in all areas with a strength in reading

• Year 9 are sitting on or above state average in most areas with a strength in reading and writing

• Spelling continues to be a challenge across our system with all cohorts sitting on or just below the state average

• Numeracy, whilst consistently strong in Year 3 in successive years, is not achieving the same level of growth, compared to the state, in Years 5, 7 & 9.

The data tables following include 2017, plus data from the previous six years for comparison.

national minimum standardsThe second lowest band on the achievement scale reported for each year level represents the national minimum standard expected of students at that year level. The national minimum standard is the agreed minimum acceptable standard of knowledge and skills without which a student will have difficulty making sufficient progress at school. Students whose results are in the lowest band for the year level have not achieved the national minimum standard for that year. These students are likely to need focused intervention and additional support to help them achieve the skills they require to progress in schooling.

National testing provides opportunities for the system and schools to examine achievements and progress, and to strategically plan for further improvement as a result. Across our system of schools, results are generally very pleasing.
