Project Details

Project Description

The study aims to identify effects on 3400 secondary students' learning and wellbeing through implementation of the Bendigo Education Plan. The plan entails major changes to techer/student relationships and how students experience schooling. It focuses strongly on identifying and addressing individual students; needs through personalised learning, meaningful goal setting against benchmarking, and improving regional and rural secondary students' life opportunities is part of a national priority, and this study will provide evidence for effective future refinement of this approach to learning and wellbeing for these and other students.
