Research statement
Background
The research was commissioned by the Tasmanian Catholic Education Office (TCEO) and
involved a literature review, survey of school/community leaders from 22 schools, analysis
of Catholic Education Tasmania (CET) student data; case studies with 10 schools; and
collaborative experiences in leadership workshops.
All data collection was approved by the Human Research Ethics Committees of Deakin
University and the University of Tasmania.
Contribution
Overall, the research found deep commitment of CET staff to supporting the learning and
well-being of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, and evidence of successful work
in relation to cultural responsiveness and well-being for students; improved knowledge and
awareness for staff; and connection with community organisations.
The research also found significant diversity in views and actions within CET, and uncertainty
among staff about what good practice looked like and how to collaborate with community
partners.
The detailing of this enabled strong recommendations to be made to enable a more complete enactment of successful strategies.
Significance
The four major recommendations of the report are being systematically introduced and made by Catholic Education Tasmania, resulting in systemic change across their 35 schools. The report itself is being made free and online to be accessed by other systems.
