4. Sustainable Future As stewards of the Glennie School, we will ensure that our truly great educational opportunity continues to grow and prosper from one generation to the next. We will do this by introducing more sustainable and future focused business practices, and by creating a 21st-century environment that enables delivery of our strategic objectives. While we honour and respect our tradition and historic site, we also recognise that continued investment in contemporary practices and infrastructure is paramount to our future growth. This perspective will be embedded into our existing practices and operations as well as our curriculum over time.
Focus areas
Upgrade our existing site: We will invest in the refurbishment of our campus through the development of a 10-Year Infrastructure Master Plan, commencing in 2021 with the introduction of a Sport and Fitness Academy. We will invest in new, digital technologies to keep pace with change; improving the standards of educational delivery across our site within this Master Plan. Strengthen our governance: We must be diligent in the maintenance of our overall risk, business and financial management practices. These will be lifted to even higher standards of excellence, to continually meet Council expectations and performance metrics. This includes three-yearly Risk and Governance Audits conducted by an independent third party, stakeholder surveys and continued staff development. Sustainable practices: In light of current environmental challenges, we have an obligation to deploy a new, sustainable business practices policy that encompass activities in our community, in the classroom and across the school. This will include usage of paper, solar power and energy saving activities over time.
People focused approach – Staff Wellbeing: Fostering a team-based culture at Glennie will ensure that our operations remain contemporary, efficient, and are sustained over the longer term. This approach is critical for the future growth of our school and will be a priority for the leadership team.
