1. Barnier Public School CC21 Project Our Context Barnier PS has a current enrolment of 810 students. Over the past 11 years, the school has collaboratively worked towards our motto of ‘Challenging the Future’. This is a reflection of our belief that schools should not only support student learning for today, but also develop students to reach their full potential to become life-long learners who are outstanding citizens in a world of rapidly changing technologies. The library, video conference room and every classroom has an interactive whiteboard that is utilised every day. Our school operates with the technology structure of 1 PC between every 2 students and teaching and learning programs across the school reflect technology integration in every KLA. We have 150 iPads across the school, timetabled for each class to use a class set for at least 1 hour/day. Staff members are technology savvy and engage in authentic problem based learning. We are in the process of purchasing an Xbox for the VC room where students can engage in educational, interactive games. Our project aim is to link the curriculum with the existing technology structure within the school, incorporating inquiry based learning and student self assessment.

2. Barnier Public School CC21 Project BPS started by using iThoughts to create a concept map to see ‘The Big Picture’. This was created before we assembled our team.

3. Barnier Public School CC21 Project The next step Our next step was to assemble our team. Our team consists of 10 people including school executive and classroom teachers. There are two members from each stage.

4. Barnier Public School CC21 Project Meetings The BPS CC21 team has met twice. The first meeting was conducted to outline the project and to create a basic action plan. At this meeting it was decided to survey staff about their knowledge of peer/self assessment and Inquiry Based Learning. After this meeting, members of the team began to search for readings based around our focus areas. These readings have been placed on our server for all team members to access.

5. Barnier Public School CC21 Project Meetings Meeting 2 provided the team with the opportunity to finalise the BPS Action Plan. The Action Plan is our guide for the direction of our project. It can be modified based on the needs of our team and school.
