Sharing the Catalyst journey with Catholic Education Cairns

July 2023

Catholic Education Canberra Goulburn’s approach to teaching and learning has continued to draw national interest from across the Nation, with colleagues from Catholic Education Diocese of Cairns visiting some of our schools to see it in action.

The Catalyst team were delighted to host four system leaders from the Cairns Diocese as they sought to learn more about how High Impact Teaching Practice has been implemented across our schools.

Our colleagues from Cairns visited 4 schools observing HITP in action and speaking to teachers and school leaders about the positive impact at both school and classroom levels, as well as the improvement in student outcomes.

They also spent time with CECG Director Ross Fox and the Catalyst team to gain insights into the implementation approach from a system level.
