Vision

8 NT Council of Government School Organisations

This year has been a busy year for the Council of Government School Organisations (COGSO). It has been the first year of the Global Budget and the introduction of a Draft Education Bill. Both items have generated a significant amount of activity for COGSO and our affiliated Councils. The Global Budget has increased the demand for training in Finance and Governance for our School Councils.

Advocacy

As part of generating responses to the proposed Draft Education Bill, School Terms and the introduction of a Global Budget for schools, COGSO has engaged with School Councils across the Territory via forums and surveys, as well as direct conversations. This has allowed us to confidently be a voice for the parents of the 33,000 children at our schools when meeting with the Department of Education (DoE) and the Government.

We have representation on the Behaviour Management Taskforce (BMT), Northern Territory Board of Studies (NTBOS), Australian Council of State School Organsiations (ACSSO) and Language Stakeholder Reference Group.

COGSO continues to be the voice for parents at our Government schools. Council’s opinion is sought on Public Educations issues by the local media throughout the year with a number of appearances on TV, Radio and in the NT News. We have also launched our “Best Choice, Best Results, Best Value” campaign with a number of advertisements appearing in print media. The advertisements also highlighted the success of our students with the highest ATAR results demonstrating that Northern Territory government senior schools consistently outperform non-government schools.

Support

COGSO continues to provide training in Governance and Finance for our School Councils. Our staff also provide direct daily support to our Councils. The support is provided in many forms including; direct advice, mediation and raising issues to the Department of Education.

Governance

This year’s Executive Committee has been very successful and proactive. Helen Murray (Vice President) worked with our staff to update our constitution to meet Department of Business requirements. This was successfully approved at a Special General Meteting held electronically to allow for Territory wide participation.

Matt Skoss (Southern Representative) has continued his good work on the national body (ACSSO), seeing through the introduction of a new board structure for that organisation. Tabby Fudge (Treasurer) has introduced more rigor to our financial processes. Wally Mauger (Palmerston and Rural Representative) was the parent voice on NTBOS, Nick O’Loughlin (Darwin Representative) and Jeff Cook (Arnhem Representative) both

From the President

9Annual Report 2014 - 2015

continue their good work to encourage participation and advocating for COGSO.

This year we invited Kim Jenkinson on to the Executive Committee and took advantage of his high level of knowledge of the public education system in addition to his skills and experience in the Northern Territory public service.

Our active life members, Peter Garrigan, Wendy Pelizzo and Steve Carter have continued to provide valuable support.

The Executive have held eight meetings during the year utilising technology in recognition of the varying locations of members across the Northern Territory.

Congratulations to our wonderful public schools on another year of progress.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff, our Regional Representatives and you, our School Council members, for all the effort and hard work that you dedicate to ensuring that children get the best education possible.
