In partnership with Learning Creates Australia, we are working on an innovative model to renegotiate relationships between Traditional Owners, schools and young people to value and recognise Indigenous self-determination and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander social and emotional wellbeing.

Piloting the Learning Charter Model

This model has been co-developed and piloted with Darumbal Elders and People in Rockhampton, Queensland. Together, we have convened a community of practice with school leaders, educators and wellbeing support staff across six schools in Rockhampton, working across catholic, public, independent schooling systems.

NIYEC developed the ‘LearningWell’ learner recognition tool, designed for young people to connect their diverse range of learning experiences to their cultural determinants of wellbeing. This currently being piloted in two schools in Rockhampton.

LearningWell

The LearningWell is a student-driven learning recognition tool that captures shares, and connects the diverse learning experiences of young mob, both inside and outside of school, with their Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural determinants of wellbeing.

This is currently being piloted within the Learning Charter Model on Darumbal Country.
