PARTICIPANTS IN THE QUEENSLAND PLAN, THE LARGEST COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ACTIVITY EVER UNDERTAKEN IN THE STATE, HAVE DETERMINED ...

EDUCATION IS KEY TO FUTURE .

ACCORD TASKED TO HIGHLIGHT PRIORITIES FOR SCHOOLS TO ENSURE THEY HAVE THE BEST EDUCATION AND JOB OPPORTUNITIES COMMENT HOWARD HOBBS MP Member for Warrego

L

AST year the State Government brought together people from across the State to form the 30 year plan, the Queensland Plan. It was the largest community engagement activity of its kind ever undertaken in Queensland with individuals and groups from every corner of the state taking part. Copies of the Plan are available from my Electorate Office or can be viewed at www.queenslandplan.qld.gov.au. “The Queensland Plan” Ambassadors Council has been established and it is their role to engage with the community and government to oversee the plan’s implementation and encourage participation from across the state. Karen Tully from Charleville as a member of the Queensland Plan Ambassadors Council and she was also a Warrego Delegate to the Queensland Plan. Participants in the Queensland Plan highlighted that Education, and its future; as

a key foundation area. The Education Accord is tasked with bringing together ideas that will determine priorities for our schools, and ensure

students are given the best possible education and job opportunities. The Education Accord is one way for community members and our school

students can join the conversation which will help shape the future of education in this state. Warrego Electorate Principal, Teacher and Parent representatives to the Education Accord Summit on 25th September 2014 are Mr Adam Myers Principal of the Miles State School, Mr Steven Bennett of the Thargomindah State School and Mrs Amy Peart of Charleville. These delegates have a wide range of experience from teaching with the School of Distance Education, teaching in isolated communities, and leading one of the only Rural Independent Public Schools. When the Queensland Education Accord was announced an online questionnaire was released and can be found at http://deta.qld.gov.au/about/ educationaccord/education-accordfeedback-form.html. These questions are a platform for all Queenslanders (parents, teachers, employers, employees) to provide their opinions on the seven key questions on Education in Queensland. I look forward to sharing with you the feedback which is generated by the Education Accord in future Surat Basin News Editions.
