The Youth Network of Tasmania (YNOT) welcomes the opportunity to respond to the Tasmanian Government ‘Independent Review of Education in Tasmania’. This submission highlights the need for transformational education reform to improve student attainment and retention in Tasmania. This includes the delivery of a contemporary curriculum that equips students with practical skills necessary for life beyond school, working together for reform and empowering students to have more autonomy and agency in decision making relating to their own learning.
