Positive Education: Wellbeing and Student Achievement

This course provides students with an opportunity to reflect on the process of strategic planning and the implementation of a strategic plan in a school context. It should be noted that the focus for this course is specifically on schools. Whilst examples of strategic planning and management in industry and government departments may provide useful comparisons, the focus of this course is on developing and managing plans for primary, secondary or composite (primary and secondary) schools.As well as gaining an understanding of developing a futures perspective and a strategic approach, the course will emphasise the need to identify core focus areas for school improvement and the importance of developing short term action plans.Hopefully, students will be encouraged to consider ways in which schools can improve their all-round educational offerings by being clear-headed about developing and implementing a strategic plan.Students will also be encouraged to think about applying their learning to practical school situations. Indeed, it is hoped that this course may provide a practical impetus for a number of students to engage in the process of strategic thinking and the development of a strategic plan in their own schools.

Strategic Management in Education

Pastoral Care in the School deals with the concept of pastoral care within the context of the school situation. The course explores the development of understandings and definitions of pastoral care from its scriptural and Christian bases to its role within schools today. Pastoral care has the individual as its focus, permeates all aspects of the curriculum, and is exercised mutually by all members of the school community. Pastoral care emphasises and promotes respect for the rights of every person. The ramifications of the moral duty of care and how care is demonstrated to students is also an important part of this Course. The course reviews forms of discipline and behaviour modification procedures in the classroom and in the school community. The psychological bases and sociological contexts of pastoral care policies and practices are studied. Special attention is paid to the distinctive characteristics of pastoral care in Catholic schools. The course provides case study opportunities for students to investigate.
