School Improvement and Accountability Framework 2006-2008

The School Improvement and Accountability Framework (SIAF) provides the policy framework which guides the annual and triennial planning and reporting requirements for state schools. This framework guides schools to achieve and sustain the vision and objectives of Queensland State Education-2010, the reforms of the Education and Training Reforms for the Future agenda and the outcomes and targets of Destination 2010.

A major revision was undertaken during 2006 and SIAF is now inclusive of the full range of planning, reviewing and reporting agendas which are impacting on schools, including the Australian Government requirements for student and school reporting.

In summary, the SIAF document now comprises the following:

'Effective Planning' component: This component outlines the annual and triennial planning requirements for schools.
'Transparent Reporting' component: This component outlines the reporting necessary for schools to complete the school annual report and details the student reporting requirements.
'Assuring Quality' component: This component brings into the one SIAF document the verification process for the Triennial School Review and the Review by Exception/Review of Exemplary Practice processes.

Also included in SIAF are a number of Appendixes which provide assistance to schools with their planning and reviewing processes.

Copies of the School Improvement and Accountability Framework 2006-2008 (new window) 275k and the 2007 revisions to AOP requirements are available online.
