Are Catholic schools in Queensland dealing with changes in the 21st Century?
Catholic schools are future-focused and play an active role in shaping the educational vision of the state of Queensland. This is done in partnership with the state sector and other non-government school authorities. Catholic schools are at the leading edge of initiatives in curriculum change, student protection, the use of technology in learning and other issues which impact on the education of young Queenslanders. Catholic schools must operate according to a range of legislation, including legislation regarding: • The Queensland Studies Authority (2002) • The Accreditation of Non-State Schools (2001) • The Queensland College of Teachers (2005) • Student Protection (2003) Catholic schools in Queensland are actively committed to working with the quality assurance processes of the Queensland Studies Authority and the Queensland Non- State Schools Accreditation Board.
