Year 8 and Year 10 students' views and experiences in Collective Ed. schools in 2019

Collective ed. is a Collective Impact initiative hosted by the Beacon Foundation, working to identify and test practices aimed at improving Year 12 attainment, or equivalent, as well as post-school pathways for students in six Tasmanian communities between 2017-2021.

The Beacon Foundation has commissioned the Peter Underwood Centre at the University of Tasmania to undertake an independent impact evaluation of the project focusing on outcomes for students.

This report provides findings from a student survey conducted with Year 8 (n = 263) and Year 10 (n = 228)students at the six schools in Term 2, 2019. The overall response rate was 56%.

The survey focused on valued elements of outcomes from Collective ed. collaboratively determined by key stakeholders through several workshops in 2017.
