REACH ACTION AREAS
The REACH strategy proposes 7 Action Areas to begin implementation of these aims and goals:
1. Governance
Forming and Supporting an identifiable structure for the implementation of the strategy to include all stake holders.
2. Teacher Practice
Identifying staff who are able to share expertise with others in primary and secondary schools using a “parallel practise” model. Mapping and sharing existing expertise and excellence in Arts curriculum development and practice.
3. Identifying Students and Improving Pathways
Mapping and identifying Indigenous and non-Indigenous students who are current or potential achievers in the Arts and supporting them in articulating pathways.
4. Arts Excellence Courses
Utilising an Artist in Residence Model to run excellence programs in a range of centres that target identified students and students in general. These courses may be new initiatives run by Education Queensland utilising a range of Arts partnerships or support and extend on existing opportunities already in place.
5. Arts Pedagogy
Supporting symposium style events to raise awareness of teachers of Arts curriculum documents, initiatives, policy and impacts. 6. Arts Connectedness and Celebration
Generating and strengthening new and existing opportunities between Arts Education, Arts Industry and Community Arts events to enable all FNQ students to learn, exhibit and perform in a community, school, cluster, district, regional and state context.
7. Resources
Accessing, disseminating and producing quality Arts Curriculum resources in on-line, printed and DVD formats.
