Shaping Tomorrow, Together in Faith

We are dedicated to measuring learning outcomes effectively, helping every student achieve their full potential, with particular attention to priority cohorts.
We foster a strong culture of wellbeing, offering robust support for both students and staff.
It is our priority to support staff growth, encouraging personal, formation and professional development opportunities for all staff members.
By nurturing emerging leaders, we are securing the sustainability and continuity of our mission for future generations.
Our Strategic Priorities

Building Our Schools
Catholic Schools Broken Bay is committed to upgrading facilities through increased capital investment, creating inspiring learning spaces that support student success.
Our goals
By 2030, we will be leveraging our strong collaborative culture of continuous improvement. Improvement Plans (individual, school and system) guide our daily work, are informed by data and central to decision making. All at CSBB are driven to improve what we do and the way we do it. We analyse, plan, act and review with rigour, confident of positive impact and delivery of continuous improvement.
By 2030, our Catholic educational community will foster deep personal relationships with Jesus Christ and provide quality Religious Education. We will promote human dignity and flourishing within the nurturing, vibrant, and synodal Catholic community of Broken Bay. Relevant and meaningful formation and sacramental experiences will empower all to be beacons of faith, joy, witness, compassion and courage.
By 2030 schools will embed a culture of excellence and continuous learning, ensuring that every student is challenged and supported to reach their full potential. Educators will be highly skilled in evidence-based instruction, tailoring learning to meet individual student needs while fostering strong relationships and high expectations. Schools will prioritise proactive wellbeing for learning, targeted student support and respectful inclusive learning environments that enable student agency. A system-wide commitment to equity, professional excellence and data informed strategies will drive sustained progress, ensuring all students thrive within and beyond school.
By 2030, we will empower targeted professional learning that impacts performance growth and supports career mobility and pathways. We will implement robust systems of feedback, coaching and goal setting which develop our staff to be the very best they can be and support their wellbeing. Comprehensive leadership formation practices will be in place that grow faith-filled, student-centred, highly capable and confident leaders. We will effectively measure workplace culture and capture staff voice to influence decision-making and to support our students and colleagues facilitate continuous improvement across the system. We will have a culture of recognition of, and accountability for, outstanding achievement as well as behaviours, as demonstration of our CSBB Values.
By 2030 we will have an efficient and responsive service grounded in strong partnerships and accountability. Our offering of a Baptism to post school enrolment journey will be in strong demand across our Diocese. Current and emerging technologies will be strategically selected and utilised to support and enhance system wide operations. Transparent and embedded processes will be continuously reviewed for efficiency, value and for risk to better support system wide operations.
