Effective 1 March 2020

NESA’s registration Manuals have been updated as a result of the introduction of the Children’s Guardian Act 2019 effective from 1 March 2020.

The Children’s Guardian Act 2019 transfers the reportable conduct scheme from the NSW Ombudsman to the Children’s Guardian.

All schools and schooling systems need to review and update their policies and procedures in relation to reportable conduct to ensure that the monitoring, investigating and reporting of reportable conduct complies with the requirements of the Children’s Guardian.

The Children’s Guardian Act 2019 builds on the NSW Government’s response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. It consolidates the powers and functions of the Children’s Guardian into one Act. This includes the Children’s Guardian’s powers in relation to out-of-home care, adoption, children’s employment, reportable conduct and official community visitors.

Information about the Children’s Guardian Act 2019 is published on the Children’s Guardian website.

The registration Manuals are:

• Government system: Registration Process for the NSW Government Schooling System Manual
• Individual non-government: Registered and Accredited Individual Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual
• Systemic non-government: Registration Systems and Member Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual.

 Amendments to reflect Recommendation 37 apply to:

• sections 3.6.1, 3.11.4 and 4.4.6.1 of the Manual for individual non-government schools
• sections 5.6.1, 5.11.4 and 6.1.6.1 of the Manual for systemic non-government schools

Official Notice NESA 58/17 provides amendments to the Registration Process for the NSW Government Schooling System Manual, the Registered and Accredited Individual Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual and the Registration Systems and Member Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual (‘the Manuals’).

Quality of student learning

From 1 January 2017, changes to the Education Act 1990 (‘the Act’) became effective so that under section 47(2) of the Act, NESA is to have regard to matters relating to the quality of student learning in deciding whether the requirements for school registration are being met. Section 27A of the Act provides for NESA to have regard to the same matters with respect to government schools.

In July 2017, the Manuals were amended to provide further elaboration for schools and schooling systems in relation to the regulatory focus on the quality of student learning (see NESA Official Notice 27/17 Amendments to Government and Non-Government School Registration Manuals).

As a result of consultation conducted in Terms 3 and 4 in 2017, further amendments have been made to clarify school registration requirements relating to the quality of student learning.

The amendments relate to the requirements for teaching staff, curriculum, facilities and student welfare, in particular student attendance.

The amendments apply to:

• section 4 of the Manual for the government schooling system
• sections 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Manual for individual non-government schools
• sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the Manual for systemic non-government schools.

Conditions of registration

In 2017, changes to the Act became effective providing for the Minister to impose conditions on the registration of a non-government school.

Accordingly, the Manuals for non-government schools were updated in January 2017 with the view to providing further elaboration later in 2017.

The Manuals have now been amended further to provide more detail about the process for imposing conditions on registration, including the right to seek an internal review of a recommendation to impose conditions.

Publication of the amended Manuals

The amended Manuals take effect with the publication of Official Notice 58/17.

Please note that the web versions of the Manuals are the most up-to-date Manuals at any time.

Official Notice NESA 27/17 provides amendments to the Registration Process for the NSW Government Schooling System Manual, the Registered and Accredited Individual Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual and the Registration Systems and Member Non-government Schools (NSW) Manual (‘the Manuals’).

The amendments relate to the regulatory focus on the quality of student learning for all NSW schools and schooling systems.

The Education Act 1990 states that the quality of student learning includes, but is not limited to, the following matters:

• the standard of teaching of courses of study provided at the school
• student engagement in learning at the school
• any matters identified in a risk assessment conducted by NESA in relation to the school.

These matters are most relevant to the registration requirements for teaching staff, curriculum, facilities and student welfare, in particular student attendance.

The amended Manuals relate to these requirements and specify the evidence of compliance to be maintained by schools.
The amendments apply to:

• section 4 of the Manual for the government schooling system
• sections 3, 4 and 5 of the Manual for individual non-government schools
• sections 5, 6 and 7 of the Manual for systemic non-government schools.  

The amended Manuals take effect with the publication of this Official Notice.

The relevant provisions of the amended Manuals will be the basis of inspections of schools selected randomly in relation to ‘Strand B – Quality of Student Learning’ in Terms 3 and 4, 2017. Official Notice 26/17 provides more information about these inspections.

The evidentiary requirements for the quality of student learning in the Manuals are transitional and will be subject to further consultation with key stakeholders prior to the end of Term 4, 2017. This will allow for any refinements to be published prior to full implementation for all schools on the 2018 school inspection program.
