The effective management and use of data is a key strategic priority for the Department, as it enables us to identify student need and measure success at an individual student, program, school and whole-of-system level. This is critical to improving educational outcomes for Tasmania, ensuring that resources are distributed according to student need; and programs and policies are developed and implemented appropriately to suit the requirements of all our students.
We are committed to continuing to manage our data in the most effective way possible, and most importantly, to reflect, review, plan and implement initiatives across the state; including professional learning and resource support.
The Department of Education (DoE) is progressing action, in line with the Tasmanian Government’s Open Data policy, to add to the data sets being published in the Key Data Set 2021 and beyond.
