AISSA LAUNCHES ITS FIRST RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN – INNOVATE

The Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is an iterative process of staff consultations that lasts for over a year in 2014, where the RAP Working Group (RWG) refines the RAP in response to feedback. The members of the RWG include Carolyn Grantskalns, Chair, Lynda Secombe, Rosemary Kadow, Barbara Murray, Marilyn Wall and Monica Williams.

The RWG designs and implements learning opportunities that broaden and deepen the staff’s knowledge and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures.

Once the RAP is drafted, the AISSA engages with an external Aboriginal consultant to provide expert advice before its final publication and implementation.

The AISSA releases its first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) 2015 – 2018 titled Innovate. Throughout this year, the AISSA also supports its member schools in developing their own RAP.
