Setting the Direction
Strategies
Specific actions to achieve the Blueprint’s goals are organised under three major strategies:

Excellent school education
Systematic approach to school improvement in government schools and stronger interventions in schools where performance needs to improve.
Partnerships with parents and communities

-
Working with families, communities and business
Parents and families raising children will receive more community support through the fostering of strong partnerships between early childhood services, schools, the broader community and business -
Opportunity for all Victorians
Further reforms to ensure our schools and children’s services are equipped to respond effectively to the individual needs of all children.

-
Modern careers and workplaces
Attracting the best people to work in education and early childhood through rewarding career structures and modern work practices -
A culture of strong leadership and professional learning
