Cornish College has received a national award for its strategic plan and recognition for its sustainability programs. As well as The Educator’s Excellence Award, the college is now one of 25 schools to be recognised in the magazine’s inaugural 5-Star Sustainable Programs, which highlights schools at the forefront of sustainability and environmental education programs across Australia.
Each entry was assessed for detailed information, impact, metrics and true innovation – along with benchmarking against the other entries – to determine the final list, and the college said it was thrilled with the result.
“At Cornish College, we are a community of change-makers; a forward-thinking, inclusive, caring and contemporary school,” said principal Nicola Forrest. “We do not accept that what has been done before in education must remain the same in the future. We make evidence-informed changes to make a difference. We are a community of explorers with the commitment and courage to redefine schooling for a sustainable future.”
In line with its Cornish College Strategy Story – Toward 2030, the college said it was “becoming what the world needs schools to become so that our community can make a difference and be the difference for a sustainable future”.
