QUALITY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Forest View High School has a series of policies and procedures
which form the School's Quality Management System and cover
all areas required by NZQA to offer Unit Standards and Achievement
Standards under the National Qualifications Framework. These
policies and procedures are evaluated annually under the
management of the Deputy Principal in charge. The School
has received accreditation from NZQA to offer unit standards
in both conventional and non conventional areas.
The Quality Assurance Manual is updated biannually and it
is particularly important that HOD's and Teachers in Charge
of subjects are aware of the requirements laid out in the
Manual. The basis of the Manual is the policies of the School.
STRATEGIC
PLAN
We are currently developing the school Strategic Plan (2008
– 2010). We will complete this by the end of March
2008. Improving student learning and achievement will be
the core driver of this plan.
ANNUAL
PLAN
Each year an Annual Plan is published. This is derived
from the direction and main focus of our Strategic Plan.
Each Curriculum area is required to set two key targets
(junior/senior) and report these to the Principal by the
end of February. The Principal will set two targets from
these report as school targets to be included in the annual
plan.
