I hope that the period of Home Schooling went as well as it could for you and your family. As an experienced educator and a parent (of post-school-age children), I can only imagine the challenge of managing online education, especially for younger children, together with possibly managing your own job from home.
At JPC we have been focused on ensuring that our Online Continuous Learning Program was the best that it could be and to do all we could to support our students in their academic studies as well as appropriate in their co-curricular (Sport and Performing Arts) interests.
Nothing replaces quality face-to-face teaching though and we are delighted that all year levels have now returned to College, although we do have some Boarders who live in areas where it was not feasible for them to return to College this Term.
Towards the end of Term One, we conducted our Biennial Parent Survey. Completed last in 2018, this year's survey brought significant improvements in parent perception and feedback across all areas of the College. Most improved areas included the Quality of Teaching and Academic Focus. Click here to view the summary results from the independent company, MMG, that completed this anonymous survey for us. The results tell us that we have been focussing on improvement and achievement in the areas most important to parents who are selecting JPC for their independent education for their children.
As a College, we take academic outcomes and opportunities for students very seriously, with our goal to ensure that all students have as many options post-school as is possible. We do this set against a vast array of co-curricular activities which include Sports, Activities and our outstanding and successful Performing Arts programs.
A Balanced All-Round Education Program available at an affordable price is our Value Proposition. We are committed to ongoing improvement and look forward to actioning the feedback from parents to ensure our College remains the best that we can be.
