Your chance to contribute parent voice

On Tuesday 26th May Victorian Education Minister, the Hon James Merlino MP announced that there will be an education summit in June to evaluate what has worked for students during remote learning at home, what hasn't worked and what can improve in our schools across all sectors in Victoria as a result of what we've learned.

CSPV wrote to the Minsiter for Education last week to request that this opportunity not be lost as there is so much to learn from parents and students particularly in how learning at home has impacted student learning and wellbeing.

Minister Merlino says, “This is a real opportunity to improve our education system and learn lessons from this remote learning experience. This summit will be a way for all of our school sectors to come together and report back about the benefits they experienced.”

CSPV would like to encourage you as a Catholic school parent to provide feedback from about your experiences as you engaged in learning at home, what worked well for your children and what you believe could change as a result of your experiences over the past few weeks. 

There will be a survey sent out at the end of this term from your school to gather important feedback so that changes can be acknowledged and reviewed as part of the school improvement process in each diocese. We encourage as many parents as possible to complete these surveys to make sure your perspective is considered. 

We will be sharing further information with your school parent representative in how you can share your feedback soon. If your school is yet to nominate a parent representative, provide the link below to your school principal to nominate a suitable parent for the role. Further inquiries can be requested from CSPV via email at admin@cspv.catholic.edu.au.
