MERCHANTS  \nIn our second annual Innovative Schools list, The Educator once again profiles the schools leading the charge in transforming Australia’s educational framework  \n20 [www.educatoronline.com.au](www.educatoronline.com.au)  \nWELCOME TO The Educator’s second annual Innovative Schools list.  \nFollowing the exceptional response we received to our request for submissions for our inaugural list, we were overwhelmed again this year by the number of entries from schools right across the country, telling us about the impressive initiatives they’ve employed to optimise their students’educational experiences.  \nGiven the volume and quality of entries, it was a challenging task to compile a  \nshortlist, but we’re now proud to be able to highlight the work of 40 schools whose endeavours deserve special recognition. Over the following pages, we recognise these exceptional schools, with 12 of them being spotlighted in greater detail.  \nRead on to discover how these schools have introduced an innovative edge in everything they do, from pedagogy to technology and all aspects of K-12 education.  \nMESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSORS  \nSchoolbox and Digistorm are proud to support the Innovative Schools report for 2016. This is a fantastic opportunity to recognise innovative educators who use technology to improve teaching and learning outcomes.  \nTechnology continues to prove its ability to drive improvements in student outcomes, whilst supporting schools to move away from traditional methods. Schools are being challenged to review the impact and use of new technologies, whilst improving how parents are engaged throughout their child’s learning journey.  \nTechnology presents real challenges for educators and only those prepared to embrace change and embody innovation in a variety of forms and try new approaches to teaching and learning will shape the educational landscape of the future.  \nIt is great to see that again this year many of the schools showcased are both Schoolbox and Digistorm clients who are at the cutting edge of applying creative and innovative practices. We extend our congratulations to these clients and all the entrants that made this year’s Innovative Schools list – well done!  \nWe encourage all schools to draw upon this year’s examples, share initiatives, and reflect on the stories about educators on the edge and their big ideas for change and innovation through technology.  \nA big thank you to The Educator for pushing the education industry forward and for the opportunity for Schoolbox and Digistorm to be a major contributor to this initiative.  \nSean Richards, Co-founder, Schoolbox  \nTim Oswald, Managing director, Digistorm Education  \nSCHOOL INDEX  \n\n| NAME | PAGE | STATE TYPE |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Aitkenvale Public School | 22 | QLD | P |\n| All Hallows School | 31 | QLD | I |\n| Aspect Hunter School | 22 | NSW | P |\n| Bendigo South East College | 22 | VIC | P |\n| Bethania Lutheran School | 24 | QLD | I |\n| Brighton Secondary School | 35 | SA | P |\n| Callaghan College | 32 | NSW | I |\n| Catholic Regional College, Sydenham | 23 | VIC | C |\n| East Hills Girls Technology High School | 23 | NSW | P |\n| Giant Steps | 25 | NSW | P |\n| Grace Lutheran College | 30 | QLD | I |\n| Hale School | 28 | WA | I |\n| Hastings Secondary College | 35 | NSW | P |\n| Humpybong State School | 22 | QLD | P |\n| Immanuel College | 25 | SA | I |\n| Inaburra School | 24 | NSW | I |\n| Knox Grammar School | 24 | NSW | I |\n| Lomandra School | 25 | NSW | P |\n| Mabel Park State High School | 26 | QLD | P |\n| Mallacoota P-12 College | 24 | VIC | P |\n| Ment","cbCaiuyGZjPyyBRy","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuyGZjPyyBRy","pdf",3226887,17,"English","# Welcome\n## Message from our sponsors\n# School index\n## Spotlighted schools","[{\"question\":\"What is the Innovative Schools 2016 report focused on?\",\"answer\":\"It profiles Australian schools leading initiatives that optimize students’ educational experiences, covering areas from pedagogy to technology across K-12 learning.\"},{\"question\":\"How are schools selected for the list?\",\"answer\":\"The report describes compiling a shortlist based on the volume and quality of submissions received, then highlighting 40 schools, with 12 receiving additional spotlighting.\"},{\"question\":\"What role does technology play according to the report?\",\"answer\":\"The report emphasizes technology’s ability to drive improvements in student outcomes while helping schools move beyond traditional methods and engage parents throughout children’s learning journeys.\"}]","Innovative Schools 2016 - Innovative Schools report highlights 40 schools | PDF",1789911669,43]
