catholic education annual report 2013 5

Foreword

Schools have always been important to the Church because they are a vital means of passing on to the young the infinite treasures of Jesus Christ. That is why I have long been a strong supporter of our schools and those involved in our school communities.

The task of arousing the interest of our young people in the beauty of the Christian life lies at the heart of the Church’s mission and what we have come to call the ‘new evangelisation’. That is what makes Catholic schools different.

Through this year, I have seen many ways in which our schools continue to be different. Early in my time as Archbishop of Brisbane, I was invited to bless the site of Good Shepherd Primary School, Springfield Lakes. Later I was invited back to bless and open the new school that now stood on the site. Those two celebrations were something you would find only in a Catholic school. The same is true of the Powerhouse of Leaders, a day of spiritual formation and leadership development for Year 12 school leaders. In October 2013, I was at the blessing and launch of the new Religious Education Curriculum, the fruit of a vast amount of work over a long time by principals, APREs and teachers, to whom we owe a great debt of gratitude.

In May, on the Feast of Our Lady Help of Christians, all those working in agencies of the Archdiocese gathered together for a Mass at the Cathedral before moving to the City Hall where I spoke about the new evangelisation and the challenges we face in proclaiming the Good News in a culture like ours. As Catholic educators we have to be part of the 'new surge of Gospel energy' to which the Holy Spirit is calling us.

I am grateful to Mark Sayers, Chair of the Catholic Education Council, and the Council members for providing leadership and discernment on important issues this year. In a special way, I thank Pam Betts for her exceptionally energetic and generous leadership as Executive Director. But to all involved in the great enterprise of education in the Archdiocese I say thanks for another year of hard work and grace.

May the God of all wisdom continue to bless all our efforts to lead the young to the Risen Jesus in whom is found all that makes us truly human.

Most Reverend Mark Coleridge Archbishop of Brisbane

Vision Statement for the Archdiocese of Brisbane

Jesus Communion Mission, Archbishop John Bathersby’s vision for our growth as a healthy, vibrant, evangelising Archdiocese, has three essential dimensions calling us to:

~ Embrace the person and vision of Jesus

~ Build Communion with God and others

~ Engage in Jesus’ Mission in our world.

If we are to experience the fullness of Christian life and have the impact in the world Jesus Christ desires, every one of our communities, each of us as individuals, and our Archdiocese as a whole must live these three dimensions dynamically.

Promulgated by Archbishop John Bathersby DD July 2003.

Vision Statement for Catholic Education Archdiocese of Brisbane

Embracing the Archdiocesan Vision of Jesus Communion Mission, each Catholic community, organisation and individual collaboratively engaged in the educational ministry of the Church in the Archdiocese of Brisbane is called to:

TeachWe promote faith in Jesus Christ, teaching and learning about Jesus, the gospel and the faith of the Catholic Christian community. Learning is lifelong, life-giving and engages the whole person.

ChallengeInspired by the Holy Spirit, we challenge those we educate to live in communion with God, others and the whole of creation in prayerful, sacramental, just, peaceful, inclusive and reconciling communities.

TransformWe educate for a transformed world in communion, by nurturing the gifts and potential of each person, enacting shared leadership, and exercising a preferential option for the poor and the marginalised.

This vision statement was endorsed by Archbishop John Bathersby DD in December 2004 and launched in April 2005.

Catholic Education Council Chair's Report

In October 2013, Pope Francis approved the following statements of the Pontifical Congregation responsible for Catholic Education: 'Catholic schools' primary responsibility is one of witness… (in this regard) the contribution that Catholicism can make to education is in their reference

to the centrality of the human person, who has his or her constitutive element in relationships with others… (to do this) Catholic schools' must reflect on their own identity, because that which they can give is primarily that which they are.' I commend the Catholic Education 2013 report as it is replete with examples of these principles and dialogue: examples of how professional Catholic educators in the Archdiocese of Brisbane '…give that which they are'.

Meetings

In 2013, the Catholic Education Council met on nine occasions between February and November. It has continued to provide advice to the Archbishop in the exercise of his leadership, teaching and governance responsibilities in the area of Catholic schools. This includes the development and monitoring of policy, educational standards and the implementation of the Religious Education Curriculum for all Catholic schools including the religious institute schools. As well, recommendations were made to the Archbishop regarding the opening and closure of schools as well as the oversight of the annual budgeting and financial cycle for Brisbane Catholic Education.

Policy

A number of policies underwent review during 2013, including: Students with Disability Policy, Health and Safety Policy, Resourcing of Catholic Schools Policy, Provision of Catholic Schooling Policy (a combination of previously published policies Opening Systemic Schools Policy and Modification and Closure of Systemic Schools Policy), Learning and Teaching Policy and Early Years Policy. These policies were presented at the Council’s December 2013 meeting and endorsed for forwarding to the Archbishop for his approval.

Review of Protocol and Governance Policies

During 2013, a complete review of Catholic Education Council protocol and governance policies was undertaken by Monsignor Peter Meneely, Dr Mark Sayers, Ms Myolene Carrick and Ms Pam Betts. The review process provided clarity regarding the Archbishop’s expectations as to the role of Council and

its procedures for monitoring and reviewing governance policies for Catholic education in the Archdiocese.

School Visits

As part of their regular visitation of schools, Council members visited St Benedict’s College, Mango Hill and St Columban’s College, Caboolture. Council members were impressed by the trade training centre and vocational education program at St Columban’s and the innovative approach to buildings at St Benedict’s. They appreciated witnessing first-hand the valuable learning and teaching taking place in both schools and extended their thanks to the respective school principals, Ms Ann Rebgetz and Ms Claire McLaren for the welcome they received.

Representation on Committees

Dr Tracey Sanders continued her membership of the Queensland Catholic Education Commission as Council’s representative. She provided regular reports to Council on issues before the Commission.

Professor Ashley Goldsworthy continued as Chair of the Catholic Education Council Finance Committee and Deputy Chair of the Catholic Education Council.

The Council is deeply appreciative of the time and care which Tracey and Ashley committed to this service.

Financial Management Policy

The Catholic Education Council is committed to preparing financial reports that are transparent; comply with all applicable and relevant accounting standards, and also to ensuring that the auditor is recommendations within the report are responded to with appropriate actions. Australian Accounting Standards are observed and practices are reviewed accordingly.

The Council insists on a high standard of internal control in all aspects of the operations of Brisbane Catholic Education. Internal control comprises all policies, systems and procedures established by the Council and Leadership Team to safeguard assets and ensure the accuracy and reliability of records, provide operational efficiency and encourage adherence to Archdiocesan policies. To oversee these controls, the Catholic Education Council Finance Committee measures and evaluates the effectiveness of internal controls being applied throughout Catholic Education.

In 2013, the Finance Committee carried out significant work in the compilation and preparation of matters pertaining to the budget. Council members endorsed

Register of Legal Issues

Throughout the year, Council received quarterly updates on the Register of Outstanding Legal Issues for its consideration. In November, the Council approved the Archdiocese Report for 2013 – Workers Compensation Claims and Premium Analysis Brisbane Catholic Education that were forwarded to the Archdiocesan Finance Council.

Strategic Renewal Framework Reporting

This year, Council invited presentations from Leadership Team members from each Directorate, these reports included the Strategic Renewal Framework against the four priority areas and the related policies at each meeting from February to November. The reports included data from the Strategic Planning and Reporting on the Web application used by schools, which was very informative. Council was greatly assisted by these detailed and thoughtful presentations. Of particular note was the presentation of the new Religious Education Curriculum which has gained peer recognition in other dioceses both within Australia and overseas.

Professional Learning

Council members attended a range of professional learning opportunities during the year, including the Australian Catholic University (ACU) Leadership Conference, the Australian Council for Educational Leaders (ACEL) Conference and a further ACU conference, Addressing the Sacred through Literature and the Arts.

In addition, several Council members attended a gathering with Cardinal O’Brien, a member of the pontifical Catholic Education Council.

Membership

I wish to record my deep appreciation for the generosity of time, spirit and talent which has characterised the service of the members and secretariat of the Council this past year. I especially thank the following members, who retired from Council membership at the end of 2013, having completed their maximum number of terms: Professor Ashley Goldsworthy, Dr Tracey Sanders and Mrs Mary Clarke. I also am grateful for the service of the principals' associations nominees, Mr David Cashman and Mrs Margaret Lee.

I also wish to acknowledge the support, guidance and wisdom afforded the Council by the Archdiocese’s new Executive Director for Catholic Education, Miss Pam Betts. Pam’s leadership of Brisbane Catholic Education and her membership of Council were marked at all times by active listening and by strengthening relationships across the ministry.

I commend the following 2013 report of Catholic Education in the Archdiocese of Brisbane for your consideration.

Dr Mark W Sayers Chair, Catholic Education Council

Finance Committee Report 2013

As a standing committee of the Catholic Education Council, the Finance Committee provides recommendations and advice to Brisbane Catholic Education and the Council. This advice is provided in relation to the development of the Brisbane Catholic Education annual recurrent and capital budgets. The Finance Committee provides advice and guidance to the Council and the Executive Director on financial strategy development, forward financial planning, budget policies and parameters and financial reporting frameworks.

In April, Mr Michael Kearney, with Professor Ashley Goldsworthy, Chair of the Committee, presented to the Council the 2012 Accounts and Auditor’s Report from PriceWaterhouseCoopers. The Council endorsed the 2012 Accounts, Auditor’s Report and the 2013 Budget Reforecast for forwarding to the Archbishop and the Archdiocesan Finance Council.

In June 2013, the Council endorsed, based on the recommendation from the Finance Committee, the recommended fees and levies for 2014, along with the budget parameters that would guide the development of the 2014 budget. The clearly established budget parameters provided the framework for the planning and implementation of all processes connected with the budget preparation for 2014. The direction and input of the Finance Committee in relation to the breadth and depth of these parameters, is critical to the work of overall budget planning for Brisbane Catholic Education.

A characteristic of the budgeting process throughout 2013 was funding uncertainty. At both state and national levels, governments considered the mechanisms and amounts of funding to be provided to Catholic education. Ultimately, a change in government at the federal level has meant that the 2014 budget has been successfully established in consultation with key Queensland Catholic Education Commission (QCEC) and government advisors.

In September 2013, the Finance Committee reviewed the first draft of the 2014 Budget and recommended its endorsement to the Council. Staffing allocations for schools were approved as part of this important strategic process.

In December 2013, the Finance Committee recommended to the Catholic Education Council for forwarding to the Archbishop and Archdiocesan Finance Council, the 2014 Master Recurrent Budget, the Brisbane Archdiocesan Schools Capital Budget, the Catholic Futures Schools Land Acquisition Fund Budget and the Brisbane Catholic Education Office Capital Budget. The Council endorsed these recommendations.

In 2013, the Finance Committee welcomed the presence of Rev Jan Bialasiewicz (Parish Priest of Wilston, and Administrator of Enoggera and Gordon Park Parishes). 2013 marked a significant year for committee membership change. The two principal representatives, Mrs Carol Sayers and Mr Christopher Noonan, completed their second and final term of office on the committee. Their contribution over six years has been very significant. 2013 also marked the completion of the term of office for the chair of the committee, Professor Ashleigh Goldsworthy AO OBE KM. The contribution of Professor Goldsworthy is very much appreciated and has seen the Finance Committee conduct its business with professionalism, commitment and attention to detail. 2014 will see the appointment of a new chairperson along with a new general member and renewed principal representation.

Executive Director’s Report

At the end of January, I assumed the role as Executive Director when David Hutton left the chair to face new beginnings of his own. I am sure that you would all join me in thanking David for his many years of dedicated service to Catholic education and in

wishing him every blessing for the future.

For many, the 2013 school year began with power outages, fallen debris and significant flooding after the storms of the Australia Day weekend. The year saw the historic resignation of one pope and the election of another in Pope Francis. A federal election occurred, with a change of government. At the local level also, 2013 was a time of celebration and change for a number of schools. that indicates Brisbane Catholic Education (BCE) is

maintaining similar growth to that of previous years. In our 137 schools, there is a total of 69,984 students – 43,958 in primary schools, 15,731 in our secondary colleges and 10,295 students in our P-12 colleges.

Principals’ Listening Forums

Soon after commencing in the role of Executive Director, I committed to conducting a series of listening forums with principals in order to gain a fuller appreciation of the range of issues impacting on schools in the Archdiocese. In all, ten Listening Forums were held at venues across the Archdiocese, attended by principals in their cluster groups, often with an area supervisor and respective director. Two priorities framed my conversations with principals: the Catholicity of our Schools and Learning and Teaching. The focus questions for the forums were respectively, ‘What are the challenges for schools to remain true to the Catholic ethos in a contemporary pluralist society?’ and ‘What are the critical issues for schools in the area of learning and teaching?’.

At all forums, conversations flowed easily, were frank, respectful and fulsome. In response to the discussion starters, strengths and achievements as well as

We welcomed a new school into our community of 137 with Mary MacKillop College, Nundah and opened two new schools – St Benedict’s College, Mango Hill and Good Shepherd Catholic Primary School, Springfield Lakes. The canonical and civil transfer of the governance of Mary MacKillop College, Nundah from the Sisters of St Joseph to the Archdiocese of Brisbane was an historic event. We owe a debt of gratitude to the Sisters of St Joseph for their governance and careful stewardship of the school and acknowledge the considerable contribution the Sisters have made to Catholic education, not only at Nundah, but across the Archdiocese.

Mt Maria College at Mitchelton welcomed Years 8 and 9 with the closing of the Enoggera campus. St Mary’s School and College in Ipswich added sesquicentenary to their lexicon as they celebrated their 150th year, and St Mary of the Cross School, Windsor adopted a new name.

We began 2013 with census data showing a 3.2% growth over the corresponding figure for 2012, a result

catholic education annual report 2013 17

challenges were acknowledged. In addition, discussions often went beyond the proposed discussion starters and these conversations were also captured in the resulting report. The forums were followed by discernment, during which areas for further action were identified.

Launch of Religious Education Curriculum

On 11 October, the fifty first anniversary of the commencement of the second Vatican Council, our new Religious Education Curriculum was blessed and officially launched by Archbishop Mark Coleridge. The voices of children and young people talking about their experiences of religious education were a reminder to all present at the launch that the enterprise in which we are engaged is an exciting one.

The development of the Religious Education Curriculum was a long and complex process in conjunction with a consultative committee and under the direction of the Deputy Executive Director Kevin Twomey and Principal Education Officer-Religious Education Mark Elliott. The curriculum comprises a book, dedicated website and theological background application, and was designed and developed by staff from Religious Education Services. The new Religious Education

Curriculum has been mandated for use by every Catholic and ecumenical school in the Archdiocese of Brisbane. Prior to the launch in September, a joint priest-principals inservice was held to introduce them to the Religious Education Curriculum.

I once again congratulate the Religious Education Team for their exemplary work in working collaboratively with teachers and APREs across the Archdiocese and beyond to produce this thoroughly comprehensive document.

Update on Move of Year 7 to Secondary Once again, a major focus in 2013 has been the move of Year 7 from primary school to secondary school from 2015. There has been an emphasis on both staffing and professional learning during the year. In August, 100 senior secondary leaders visited Perth for Forward Focus: Year 7 to Secondary Symposium, to hear and see the WA story of the incorporation of Year 7 into the secondary context. The two-day symposium consisted of a series of presentations and school visits and was very informative and instructive for all delegates.

Courage to Care

In May, Brisbane Catholic Education’s Religious Education Team proudly launched the Courage to Care exhibition. The travelling exhibition, being hosted by the Religious Education team on the old Mt Maria Junior Campus at Enoggera, particularly honours the Righteous Among the Nations, those non-Jewish citizens who saved the Jews during the Holocaust, often at great personal risk. The Courage to Care program promotes tolerance and harmony within the broad Australian family of communities with an aim to explain through story and experience just what an enormous difference an individual can make.

The exhibition was visited by students, school staff and visitors over a period of five weeks. I acknowledge the work of the Religious Education Team in ensuring the relevance of this program in the curriculum offerings and professional learning opportunities of the Archdiocese.

Thank You

Thank you to all who have made me feel so genuinely welcome in my new role as Executive Director. This is a great privilege that I have been given and I feel truly blessed. School visits are one of my favourite aspects of the Executive Director’s role and I have had the pleasure of attending a number of celebrations of significant milestones this year and hearing and sharing in each school’s individual stories. One of the many highlights has been the opportunity of meeting and talking with

staff and students in our schools as opportunities have arisen. These occasions gave me cause to reflect once again on all those educators, particularly Catholic educators who have gone before us.

Each of us is but one link in a very strong chain of collective endeavour that connects our Church, our families and our schools giving a voice to the values, beliefs and traditions of our faith, and an ear to those who want to engage with us and want their own voices heard. We do indeed stand on the shoulders of all who have gone before us and it is good to stop, reflect and acknowledge our great traditions.

Planning Advisory Committee

The Planning Advisory Committee provides advice to the Executive Director on planning and capital development issues across schools in the Archdiocese. Capital development applications beyond $50,000 must first be endorsed by the Planning Advisory Committee before being recommended to the Executive Director. Projects in excess of $1 million are referred to the Archdiocesan Finance Council and the College of Consultors for final approval by the Archbishop.

This year, the committee assessed 31 applications for capital assistance to be forwarded to the Queensland Catholic Education Commission (the Block Grant Authority). Of these, 15 applications were recommended for funding from State and Commonwealth Governments with grants totalling $24,097,342 and school contributions of $5,516,612. A further 18 applications for capital assistance for the move of Year 7 to secondary were assessed and submitted for the third funding round. The 32 BCE secondary and P to 12 colleges have been allocated grants of $50,658,778 from this program. The Planning Advisory Committee also endorsed 58 school self-funded projects totalling $54,900,492.

The Planning Advisory Committee oversaw the provision of the purchase of land for future school development. In particular, it recommended land for a future school be purchased at Griffin and additional land at Mango Hill.

The committee endorsed an additional stream of students in each of the following schools:

~ St Francis College Crestmead

Archdiocesan Commonwealth Targeted Programs (CTP) Committee 2013 Report

The committee administers the disbursement of Commonwealth grant funding for the Literacy, Numeracy and Special Learning Needs (LNSLN) program area. This funding is aimed at improving the following in the Archdiocese of Brisbane for 2013 by the Archdiocesan Commonwealth Targeted Programs (CTP) Committee in accordance with the Commonwealth LNSLN guidelines:

~ the learning outcomes of educationally disadvantaged students, particularly in literacy and numeracy; and

~ the educational participation and outcomes of students with disabilities.

Committee members have collaboratively endeavoured to accomplish the task of disbursement with justice and equity to meet the diverse educational needs of the students attending our Catholic and ecumenical schools and colleges. The committee would like to highlight the following significant matters in relation to the 2013 process:

~ For 2013, students eligible for special learning needs (SLN) funding from prep to Year 9 had a funding allocation for 39 weeks. For eligible students in Years 10, 11 and 12, the allocation was for 37 weeks.

~ Courses that focus on improving literacy teaching – Tactical Teaching, First Steps, Reading to Learn were available to all Archdiocesan schools. These professional learning programs support the building of capacity within schools for improved outcomes for students in literacy, and combine expert input, coaching and ongoing support for teachers to engage in reflective practice. The CTP Committee allocated some funding to support schools to access these courses.

~ The number of schools with refugee learners has dropped over the last few years. The number and cultural mix of refugees reflects political circumstances in countries of origin. As a result, refugees are arriving from a more diverse group of countries.

~ There is continued demand from schools for support for students who arrive within the new arrival period of eligibility and transfer from state schools and other dioceses, as well as for children born into refugee families settled here who are now entering school. These students with high support needs then require funding from the general support element of the LNSLN program.

~ The school-based ESL Cluster Teacher support has been maintained for 2013 in response to continuing research into the improvement of ESL learner academic and social outcomes through effective ESL practices.

For the past twelve years, the Archdiocesan CTP Committee has offered funding for Action Learning Projects in Literacy and Numeracy to support schools to focus on improving practice in the teaching of literacy and numeracy and to encourage teachers to be leaders in their school communities. We know that teachers make more difference to student achievement than any other factor – especially when teachers work together and use student information to change their teaching to teach more effectively.

A comprehensive 2013 funding disbursement report was published, distributed and uploaded onto the Learning

and Teaching portal which is accessibble to all schools and colleges in the Archdiocese in April 2013.

The final meeting of this committee was held in November 2013 as from 2014 funding previously disbursed as Commonwealth Targeting Funding Programs will be allocated to each authority. This has resulted in the dissolution of the committee at the end of 2013. The contribution of the numbers of CTP Committee over many years is acknowledged and appreciated.

The CATSIEP committee administers the disbursement of Commonwealth funding for the Indigenous Supplementary Assistance (ISA) program.

The Council of Australian Governments (COAG) has agreed to six target areas for closing the gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, which include:

~ halving the gap in reading, writing and numeracy achievements for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children within a decade

~ halving the gap for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in Year 12 attainment or equivalent rates by 2020.

The purpose of the ISA funding is to support the academic, social and cultural needs of each individual Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander student to reach the COAG targets. These can be achieved through directing funding to:

~ improve the literacy and numeracy outcomes of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

~ increase the involvement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parents/community members in educational decision making.

~ establish and expand a culturally inclusive curricula.

~ increase professional learning opportunities for all staff that build capacity to improve the outcomes of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

ISA funding is provided to ensure that schools have the capacity to deliver high-quality educational outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. It is calculated on a formula that takes into account the level of schooling, the remoteness of the school location and the residential address of the students attending boarding schools in the Archdiocese.

The funding arrangements provide flexibility for education authorities and schools to develop strategies that better respond to the individual needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students within the context of each school community.

Archdiocesan Funding 2013

In 2013, funding from the Australian Government for distribution by the Archdiocesan CATSIEP committee totalled $4,799,922. This funding incorporates the

Archdiocesan Commonwealth Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education Programs (CATSIEP) Committee 2013 Report

inclusion of our remote student allocation for those who reside in communities governed by an Indigenous Council.

A comprehensive 2013 Funds Disbursement report was prepared and made available on the Learning and Teaching Portal in April 2013.

Continuing the 2012 initiative, a working party, chaired by Diarmuid O’Riordan, Principal of St Peter Claver College, Riverview, provided advice to the committee regarding changes to the existing disbursement formula and these have been put in place for 2013.

Enrolment Statistics

The enrolment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in Catholic schools and colleges in the Archdiocese of Brisbane continues to increase. In 2013, there were over 1,914 students from P-12 across the Archdiocese.

Examples of the school and Archdiocesan initiatives during 2013 have included:
