This document contains a school improvement plan for a learning institution. It identifies several priority improvement areas across four pillars: access, equity, quality, and resiliency/well-being. For each area, it outlines general objectives, root causes, and timeframes for addressing the root causes between 2023 and 2025. It also includes enabling mechanisms to support the plan's implementation, such as ensuring ideal learning environments and collaboration with stakeholders. The plan aims to improve various outcomes for learners, such as enrolment rates, completion rates, and attainment of learning standards.
