School Plan
The NSW DEC State School Plan reflects the cohesive, interdependent and tri-level approach embedded within NSW public education, and demonstrates commitment to continuous improvement in teaching and learning and focus on raising the achievement bar and closing the performance gap for students in our schools. It has six priority areas:
Literacy
Numeracy
Student Engagement and Retention
Aboriginal Education and Training

The Plan provides regions and schools with clear direction for the highest possible standards for teaching and learning for every child, including but not disabilities, students from non English speaking backgrounds, and students from different socio-economic backgrounds. It also includes hyperlinks to webpages providing detailed documents and support materials to guide and assist regions and schools in their planning and implementation of learning programs.
