Draft Strategic Plan 2025-2029

I am pleased to share an update on the development of our Strategic Plan for 2025 - 2029. This five year plan will guide our decision making and shape our priorities. We will continue to work on the draft this term, with a final Strategic Plan to be shared with the school community in Semester 2.

Our four pillars in the draft plan are:

• Learning
• Community
• Environment
• Performance

Learning

Our core priority is to ensure learning and development for all students, staff and our wider community. 

Our commitment to learning is central to our commitment to providing outstanding opportunities to explore passions, develop talents and flourish throughout life. 

Our Anglican Identity cultivates leadership, service, social justice and mission and nurtures the development of compassionate and purpose driven people of good character.

We inspire the pursuit of individual excellence for all and empower students to pursue their unique learning pathways in life confidently. Our focus on providing a learning pathway from Prep to Year 12 will help to embed research based approaches to learning across our College.

Community

“It takes a village to raise a child.” At the heart of our success are our people – a thriving community with shared values that define who we are and how we act. Through responsible governance and management, we are committed to integrity, transparency, and alignment with our Anglican School Vocation, College Mission and Values.

With the growth and pride of the College reflected in our broader reputation and standing, our focus will be to support practices of community inclusion and participation.

As we look to establish and refine our programs to support learning and development for all, we will have a strong focus on strategic partnerships with universities and industry to drive improvement, innovation and outcomes.

Our support of learning across our Prep to Year 12 community will help to provide opportunities for our students to achieve beyond what they thought was possible.  The continued success and support for our global programs will help to expand horizons for our West Moreton Anglican College Community.

Environment

We know that equipping students for success in school life and beyond involves academic, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development. Our work to provide the optimal environment for students, staff and the wider community across our 38 hectare campus is of utmost importance.

The ongoing development of our site is well underway with the first phase of our 2040 Master Plan. The integration of the Student Hub, which will be operational by the middle of 2026, will fundamentally change how we work and interact with each other on a daily basis. The Student Hub will also unlock future development and growth opportunities across the College Heart.

Our focus on our Environment will also include the ongoing commitment to the learning and development environment of the College. We will be focused in our support of learning from Prep to Year 12, as we take advantage of our whole College connection. Our support for one another will be a key area of success in the culture across the College community.

The continued implementation and refinement of the WestMAC Way will help to ensure that we provide a strong focus on teaching and supporting the expected behaviours across West Moreton Anglican College – maintaining our high standards and high expectations.

Sustainability is one of the College’s values as part of our 2040 Master Plan. In particular, the development of increased energy generation capacity at the College and the implementation of environmentally sustainable solutions.

Performance

As our College continues to grow and thrive, one of our key challenges over the next five years is the optimal use of our resources. Our people and the opportunities we provide for them to develop and grow as professionals across the education sector will be of core importance to our future success.

West Moreton Anglican College will establish and implement programs and support to attract and retain the best talent to lead and guide our students for ongoing success.  The introduction of a supportive, developmental staff program aligned to annual goal setting, performance feedback and recognition will help to provide the structure to ensure long term staff engagement and wellbeing.

Student’s academic performance will be a core focus over the next five years, with opportunities for individual excellence maximised through the responsible allocation of resources across our College campus. We will strive to ensure that each student is able to pursue the pathway opportunities for ongoing success after completing their tenure at West Moreton Anglican College.

The continuation of the successful Kouzes and Posner “Leadership Challenge” Framework for our staff will be supplemented by the introduction of formal leadership development for our Student Leaders across the College.

I believe in keeping our school community involved and informed as our Strategic Plan takes shape, and so I hope this early look at our draft plan offers insight into the direction we are taking together.
