Review: "The agency has commissioned and invested significant resources in a number of reviews in recent years to strengthen its capability and capacity. However, because it has failed to embed many of the recommendations provided, it continues to encounter the challenges that these reviews were intended to address. The agency needs to actively consider implementing recommendations from these past reviews including the Statewide Services Form and Function Review and the Strategic Review of the WA Department of Education."

Translation: "You've already done lots of review. Have you thought about actually doing something?"

Review: "Without appropriate allied professional support for students, teachers are navigating complex issues they have not been adequately trained to deal with. The lack of a system approach has resulted in schools developing their own solutions, particularly in

regional WA, with services provided in an ad hoc manner in schools."

Translation: "Teacher's are trying to pick up the pieces supporting students because you haven't made an attempt to solve the problem properly!" #auspol #education #teaching

This review is great!

Review: "The increasingly complex needs of students have expanded teacher workload and are resulting in high levels of stress and burnout, with attraction and retention affected. In the last 3 years more than 5,200 teachers have left the agency. While workforce challenges are well documented, the agency has struggled to take a

strategic approach to workforce planning. It needs to develop a whole of agency workforce strategy aligned to its future strategic direction. Workforce planning efforts should be informed by and help inform workforce planning occurring across the human services sector to facilitate adequate and appropriate supply pipelines."

Translation: "You saw this coming, and you haven't done anything about it!"
