Why have we asked for information about Parent /Guardian occupation and education?
All Australian Education Ministers have agreed on National Goals for Schooling in the 21st Century. As a part of this all school must now ask information regarding the family background of students. The main purpose of collecting this information is to promote an education system which is fair for all Australian students regardless of their background. We use the information to evaluate whether our policies are effective and to ensure that no group is experiencing undue disadvantage because of their economic or social background. Providing information about your occupation and education is voluntary and you do not have to answer if you do not wish to.
The five groups listed on page ‘2’ are used by the Australian Bureau of Statistics to classify occupations. Please choose the group that you think best describes you. If you have retired or stopped work in the past year please choose the group in which you used to work. You will need to use this table to answer the questions on page 5.
Student Email and Internet Access
Students are provided with an email account to enable learning opportunities in a protected and secure environment. Students must abide by the school’s policy when using the schools Internet and email services. Parents/ Guardians will need to inform the school in writing if they do not want their child to have access to the school Internet and email facility.
Student Attendance System
For students under 18, the person nominated as ‘Parent/Guardian 1’ in this form will be notified via SMS message if the student is recorded as absent without approval for Period 1 of the day. That person can then either phone the school to advise the reason for the student's absence or reply to the SMS message stating student name and reason for absence. Once the student turns 18, these absence alerts will be sent to the campus Student Wellbeing Officer.
