At East Doncaster Secondary College it is our intention for every teacher to be responsible for their own professional growth via an evidenced based improvement plan, explicit goals, use of a critical friend as well as reviewer, and through the use of multiple sources of feedback including classroom observation – a key focus continues to be ‘collaboration’.
Educational Support staff at EDSC are highly respected and valued as critical to the success of our improvement agenda. It is essential that there is common commitment to the college’s goals.
Our catch phrase as learners is ‘Creating a Culture of Curiosity’ – we are actively embracing the notion that teaching and learning is in the public rather than private domain.
Curriculum Leaders
Our curriculum leaders are responsible for leading the development and maintenance of the college curriculum. Please contact them if you would like to discuss any aspect of the college programs.
Student Management Leaders
Our student management leaders are responsible for student discipline and well-being. Issues are referred to them by classroom teachers, parents or students.
Professional Learning
Our staff have a commitment to ongoing professional learning, and regularly attend sessions which update and expand their skills and knowledge.
