Reflection Piece - World Teachers' Day

This Friday 25 October, it is World Teachers Day. The world owes much to our tireless, courageous teachers who give so much of themselves ensuring that the students in their care have opportunities to truly flourish and to transform the world. In Catholic Education this transformation includes creating a just and peaceful world. A world based on the Reign of God. 

In 1986, while  visiting Melbourne St. John Paul II addressed Catholic Educators: 

"The life of a teacher, as I know from personal experience, is very challenging and demanding, but it is also profoundly satisfying. It is more than a job, for it is rooted in our deepest convictions and values. To be intimately concerned in the development of a young person, of hundreds of young people, is a highly responsible task. As teachers, you kindle in your students a thirst for truth and wisdom. You spark off in them a desire for beauty. You introduce them to their cultural heritage. You help them to discover the treasures of other cultures and peoples. What an awesome responsibility and privilege is yours in the teaching profession." 

May we all continue to contribute to this blessed work.

World Teachers' Day

Celebration Kit

From the Executive Director

Congratulations to secondary College communities who have this week farewelled Year 12 students to prepare for final exams and assessments. It is an emotional time for all concerned as students transition to the next phase of life. To see the Colleges embracing this milestone with such meaningful traditions and celebrations points to the maturity of the relationships they have built with their students and the positive impact they have had on their development.   

Speaking of recognising significant milestones, we congratulate the school communities of All Saints, Portland (175th anniversary last Saturday), St Patrick’s, Port Fairy (175th anniversary this Saturday) and St Patrick’s, Nhill (75th anniversary last Sunday). These anniversaries are a testament to the collective dedication and work of clergy, religious orders, staff and families across the decades. The milestones also serve as a reminder that we are all part of a larger, ongoing story, delivering education in the Catholic tradition to the 1 in 5 families choosing our schools across Western Victoria. 

Our DOBCEL Board is committed to engaging closely with school communities to better understand their needs and yesterday visited St Thomas More (Alfredton), St Mary's (Clarkes Hill), Siena (Lucas), St Michael's (Daylesford), St Augustine's (Maryborough), St Patrick's (Gordon) and St Augustine's (Creswick). 

Today the Board met at St Augustine’s, Creswick and we thank Principal Michael Heenan and his team, along with all the schools who have hosted Board members, for their hospitality and showcasing the great work they are doing.

Key discussion items for the Board today were the activation and communication planning around the new DOBCEL 2035 Strategy along with reflection and learnings gained from our recent engagement with Canadian colleagues. 

With best wishes to all our teachers for a great World Teachers’ Day on Friday. This special day is an opportunity to honour the dedication, hard work, and professionalism of our teachers who play a crucial role in shaping the minds and futures of children. By celebrating the day and showing our appreciation, we can all create a more supportive and encouraging environment that will support our teachers to thrive. 

For this week’s stimulus reading, I encourage you to read an article by our strategic planning collaborator Professor Pasi Sahlberg titled Australian schools: Good.Different.

Best wishes

Tom Sexton, Executive Director

Early Career Teacher Check-ins Term 4

As planning for the 2025 Early Career Teacher Program begins and we reflect on the 2024 Program, we would like to engage with Early Career Teachers (ECTs) to provide the opportunity to engage and reflect on their successes and an opportunity to discuss where additional development can be provided at a system level.  

To enable this, the Early Career Teacher program in Term 4 is individual check-in conversations intended to share the successes and challenges of 2024. ECTs will be asked to share their experience engaging in the early career teacher program, their experience in schools as an ECT and for CEB staff to provide any further individualised advice or feedback during the call.

Anyone who has participated in an early career teacher session in terms 1,2 and 3 should have received an email inviting you to participate. If you are yet to book your conversation in, please click here to book. If you have not been able to participate in the Early Career Teacher Program in 2024 but would like a check-in conversation please use the above link to book.

We look forward to working with Early Career Teachers from around the Diocese again in Term 4 and into 2025!

The Teaching Excellence Program - Staff Professional Learning Opportunity

(Applications open until Sunday 3 November 2024)

The Teaching Excellence Program (TEP) enables highly-skilled teachers to advance their capability and confidence for exemplary teaching.

TEP2025 is fully funded by the Victorian Academy of Teaching and Leadership and is a year-long professional learning program for highly-skilled teachers, aimed at supporting and challenging them to become even better teachers. Through the program, teachers analyse their teaching practice to deepen content and pedagogical content knowledge in and across the key discipline areas. They access contemporary, evidence-informed research and apply this learning to their students’ learning needs. Teachers utilise a practitioner inquiry approach to deepen their knowledge, capability and confidence to teach even more effectively in their context.

TEP is open to highly-skilled teachers with a minimum of three years’ teaching experience from the government, Independent and Catholic sectors, including those teaching in alternative settings.   

Supported by a team of Master Teachers-in-Residence, TEP teachers engage with national and international expert educators in a diverse range of learning activities, including Conference Days, Discipline Days, Teaching Excellence Learning Community (TELC) Days and Practitioner Inquiry. 

The program is structured around key disciplines, including:

• The Arts
• English, including English as an additional language
• Health and Physical Education
• The Humanities
• Languages
• Mathematics
• Science
• Technologies

Graduates of previous TEP program report that their teaching skills have improved, and their enthusiasm for the profession has grown. They also report the TEP has ‘inspired and invigorated them’, ‘revitalising’ them and reigniting their joy around teaching, with 84 % of 2023 TEP participants saying the program had a ‘significant impact’ on their students' learning outcomes.

Program Structure

Over one school year, teachers are expected to engage with and contribute to:

• orientation session (online, 90 minutes)
• conferences (2 days) in Melbourne
• discipline days (4 days) in Melbourne
• Teaching Excellence Learning Communities (TELCs) days (4 days). These are place-based (closest Academy location: Bairnsdale, Ballarat, Bendigo, Geelong, Melbourne, Mildura, Moe, Shepparton).

The breakdown of time per term (based on 2024 program) is expected to be:

Term 1 – orientation session and 3 days

Term 2 – 2 days

Term 3 – 2 days

Term 4 – 3 days

Please connect to an information session to find out more.

Information Sessions

To support applicants with their 2025 TEP applications and answer any questions, we are holding weekly drop-in information sessions for both teacher applicants and principals.

We encourage applicants to attend an applicant/teacher information session to find out more about the program and so that we can clarify and support applicants to submit their applications. The principal information sessions are opportunities to hear from Principals-in-Residence. The sessions will provide information for principals to support their teacher applicants through the application process and the year of professional learning that follows.

New RRRR Curriculum Resources - Flyer and information

Is your school using the Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships (RRRR) program? Are you yet to decide on a
SEL program? Please click here to view the flyer. 

Expression of Interest for Schools Parents and Resilient Kids (SPARK) Program in 2025 for Primary schools in the Central Highlands Area.

The Schools Parents and Resilient Kids (SPARK) program is an evidence-based early intervention program for children Foundation/Prep to Grade 2 with disruptive and challenging behaviours. Funded by the Victorian Government in partnership with Grampians Health, the Department of Education, and Catholic Education Ballarat, the program offers schools in the Ballarat/Grampians region the opportunity to participate in 2025.

The program involves screening all children in these grades to identify those with mild to moderate levels of disruptive and challenging behaviours. Selected children and their parents participate in the evidence-based early intervention program. The SPARK Program, run by the ICYMHWS aims to improve child behaviour, family relationships, and assist parents and schools in managing difficult behaviours. The program also facilitates referrals to local agencies for additional support if needed.

The components of SPARK are summarised below

• Child program: in the 10-week program, children learn social and emotional skills such as problem-solving, emotion regulation, and empathy in small groups. Let’s keep the letter to one page in length. It also promotes prosocial behaviours like cooperation, kindness, and respect, fostering supportive environments in both the classroom and home.
• Teacher professional development: professional development sessions are offered to all teachers as well as ongoing support for implementing classroom strategies that are parallel to the SPARK program. Development of behavioural management plans are also offered to teachers.
• Parent/carer program: The Bringing Up Great Kids (BUGK) program is offered to all parents and carers in the school. BUGK gives caregivers insights into their parenting style and practical strategies, reinforcing the social and emotional skills their children are developing. There is also parent/carer support from our Peer Carer Support Worker.

For more information or to express interest in the SPARK program, please contact Brooke Nester on 0447 946 223 or bnester@ceob.edu.au or Beth Fernandes GV Health on 5320 3030 by October 18th, 2024.
