Education Minister, has today launched a new
Delivery Plan for the TransformED Strategy, which aims to reform
and improve education delivery in Northern Ireland.
The TransformED Delivery Plan turns the strategy's vision for
educational excellence into actionable steps, focusing on teacher
professional learning, curriculum reform, assessment,
qualifications, school improvement and tackling educational
disadvantage.
The Delivery Plan clearly sets out the approach, key delivery
partners, indicative timescales and costs to ensure effective
implementation of each of the actions within the TransformED
Strategy.
said: “TransformED
represents a break with what has gone before. I want to focus on
investing in and supporting high-quality professional development
for our school leaders and teachers and relentlessly improving
curriculum, pedagogy and assessment.
“Since the launch of the TransformED strategy work
has been underway to finalise the Delivery Plan, which sets out a
clear roadmap for the way ahead. The heart of education lies in
the classroom and I believe this Plan will drive real and
meaningful change across our education system.”
The Education Minister concluded: “Our aim is to ensure
our education system is truly world-leading – one that is
excellent, equitable, inclusive and responsive to the needs of
all children and young people in a rapidly changing world. This
ambitious reform programme has the potential to transform
education in Northern Ireland for a generation.”
