  6. Implementation Ideas? • A Career & Transition School Coordination team- this might entail a realignment of existing school teams; Schools need to ask themselves: • Why was each team formed? • Which staff members are involved? • Does the team have an aim and how is that aim reflected in the schools management plan? • Is the team representative of all school areas? • What part of the student body is targeted by this team? • How does the team evaluate its success and are team findings utilised in developing management plans?

  7. Other Ideas • School Clusters- groups of high schools working together to develop strategies that address the needs of a targeted group of students. • School Communities- Formation and/or enhancement of strategies across school communities that develop the ‘whole’ student. • Kurri Kurri Learning Community • The potential for the development of formalised partnerships is underpinning to PMF. • Teacher professional development is also a key to the success of this initiative.
