Dare to Lead Remote Schools
Approximately 9% of Dare to Lead coalition schools are in remote or very remote locations. A group of identified school leaders working in or with remote schools attended a meeting in July 2005 to identify the particular needs of remote schools. Discussion centred on how Dare to Lead can best support school leaders in these locations to improve the educational outcomes of their Indigenous students.
As a result of this meeting, a Dare to Lead Tristates Remotes group has been established. Early in the year school leaders from remote schools in the NT, SA and WA come together in Alice Springs for a Tristate conference. During the conference, participants will discuss and compare the particular challenges faced by leaders in remote schools in these areas and the ways in which the project can provide effective support. The Tri-states group focuses on the needs of school leaders in remote areas of the NT, SA and WA.
