Appendix 5: SES Performance Statements Andrew Cappie-Wood Director-General of Education and Training Managing Director of TAFE NSW SES Level 8, $387,250 Mr Cappie-Wood is responsible to the Minister for the leadership and management of the public education and training systems and the provision of advice affecting all education and training in New South Wales. Governance arrangements remained high on the agenda during 2005 with further refinement of the Department’s Results and Services Plan with Treasury. Mr Cappie-Wood initiated a governance review of TAFE NSW to develop a business model which is attuned to a more competitive environment and oversaw the improvement in TAFE’s unit cost so that this cost is the third lowest in Australia and lower than the national average. Other priorities for Mr Cappie-Wood involved strengthening of financial accountability with funding devolution. This required the effective use of the $9.8billion recurrent and capital expenses for the Department for 2004-05. New accountable financial arrangements were established for the Schools Privately Financed Project. Mr Cappie-Wood played a key role in the Department’s external and intergovernmental relationships. This included successful negotiations with the Australian Government for over $1.6 billion in funding for vocational education and training. Strategies were developed to meet Australian Government compliance requirements and secure approximately $3.8 billion in funding under the Schools Assistance and Indigenous Education Funding Agreements. As a result of the Department’s Review of Aboriginal Education, Schools in Partnership was introduced and forms a part of the $53m Aboriginal Education Strategy. The improvement in educational and training outcomes for Aboriginal people remains a key challenge for the organisation. The beginning of 2005 saw the introduction of 21 additional preschools, taking the total number of Department of Education and Training preschools to 100. This service provides prior-to-school education programs to some 4500 children. A major milestone during the year was the Department’s successful negotiation of the school and TAFE teachers’ salaries case without any industrial action, as well as achieving a new Staffing Agreement for school teachers. Mr Cappie-Wood’s leadership in 2005 focused the Department on issues emanating from the Futures Project consultation process. It was the most comprehensive consultation process ever conducted by the Department. Additional classrooms were installed to facilitate the Government’s commitment to the class size reduction initiative for students in Kindergarten to Year 2. Approximately 1500 additional teachers will support the implementation of this program. Mr Cappie-Wood oversaw the New South Wales response to the Australian Government’s Skilling Australia’s Workforce legislation. The response incorporated the effect of the legislation on vocational education and training and particularly on TAFE NSW. He also oversaw the development of the statewide plan Drug and Alcohol Issues: An Agenda for Workforce Development in NSW. A Communication Review was undertaken during 2005 with both internal and external stakeholders. This will result in the development and implementation of improved communication with parents, teachers and staff in 2006. An effective framework for school development and school accountability was established. All schools developed school plans supported by quality performance data, which links to school community, regional and system priorities. Martin Bowles Deputy Director-General, Corporate Services SES Level 7, $335,200 Mr Bowles provided leadership in the management of the Department’s education and training budget, resource plans, capital works, maintenance programs, information and telecommunications systems and infrastructure, industrial award negotiations and the recruitment, retention and career development of teachers and all other employees. Mr Bowles’ priority objectives were to provide resources and services to core teaching and learning activities and to meet government commitments in relation to class size reduction, Aboriginal education, technology access and e-learning. Other priorities were to strengthen financial accountability with funding devolution and effectively support regions and TAFE Institutes; finalise industrial awards within government resources; improve teacher recruitment and staffing of schools; improve OHS performance; and maintain quality environments in schools and TAFE Institutes. During 2005, Mr Bowles ensured that key performance measures and targets within the Corporate Services Portfolio Plan were met. Mr Bowles supported priorities for public education and training with the effective use of the $9.8 billion recurrent and capital expenses for the sector in 2004-05. Accountable financial arrangements were established in 2005 for the Schools Privately Financed Project. Nine new school facilities have been provided and contracts for a further nine schools in growth areas were finalised in 2005. Significant improvements were made to school and TAFE NSW buildings, and additional classrooms were installed to facilitate smaller classes for Kindergarten children.
