What is working well?
How do I know?
Examples:

If we just had....this would be more ....
My individual needs are?
EDGE needs for students are?

# data[].attributes.body
Are there areas of untapped potential or talent?
What do we currently have that we can used differently or more effectively?
What do we currently do we could incorporate into EDGE?

# data[].attributes.body
What do you need in order to be more effective or have better time management?
What assistance do you need?
Should EDGE be reported on and linked to 21st Century skills we are aiming to build (tick list).
Should we develop EDGE awards?

# data[].attributes.body
having students interact and work with different year levels not just their friends in their cohort. They are starting to work together without being directed by a teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
time to plan for the term and organise resources

# data[].attributes.body
offer sports e.g. netball and enhance other things we are already doing within the school e.g. netball development squad

# data[].attributes.body
Be given a set budget so we can plan for excursions and resources
maybe a set template (simple) to complete for planning, resourcing etc
Some classes were too large

# data[].attributes.body
A clearer idea of budget available for Edge. It can be a time consuming process, so some time for planning for Edge, especially in those areas that are covered by the one staff member, would be beneficial. Finding activities that do not impact on the existing curriculum can be difficult. (Not sure that this is a need, more an observation)

# data[].attributes.body
Students clearly enjoy the opportunity to engage in different activities outside the normal curriculum.  Agree with DRY that the vertical structure is good for students.

# data[].attributes.body
Some activities are better suited to termly rotations v semester.  Would a half-day be a more suitable time frame for Edge Day?

Do we need a full EDGE day? Or even one at all?

Ability to do something different as well as to compliment programs 

# data[].attributes.body
Gives students and teachers the opportunity to do something that is outside of their usual learning area.
Valuable inks are made with the wider community.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that our EDGE group was certainly not planned, it evolved. More time was spent in preparation of one EDGE lesson than the 70 minute lesson itself.
Recycling stuff is a good idea but the materials need to be sourced (takes time).
Some money needs to be spent. Some idea of a budget would be nice.

# data[].attributes.body
This was the first year that I have been attached to EDGE and I am still unclear about the objectives. What are we trying to achieve through EDGE?
I see that there is a big opportunity to involve people/groups from the wider community but we need to invite them in (volunteer paperwork, time, etc?)

# data[].attributes.body
Some EDGE ideas are good ideas with limited numbers of students but some of the numbers seem to get out of control.
We don't seem to find out what other EDGE groups are doing for sharing resources.

# data[].attributes.body
Should Edge and Edge+ be on the same line?

# data[].attributes.body
Many teachers involved in EDGE are spending 3-6 hours a week on prep and planning as it requires collection of resources, shopping, organising equipment and transport, risk assessment, phone calls, email, confirmations of visits or guest speakers. Also after EDGE is finished ie 1.10pm there is still tidying and packing up.
Need prep and planning time if you are on EDGE. Also support staff to gather resources, shop and set up activities e.g like Ann or other admin.

# data[].attributes.body
EDGE so far has relied on teachers 'giving up' a lot of their own time to make the program successful - can this continue? Having EDGE on your timetable is like having an extra curricular activity ie 1 point.  The workload is beyond normal scope of a teacher's load.

# data[].attributes.body
Connections with community good.
Variety in our offerings.
See some students in a different light like we do at camp.

# data[].attributes.body
Need to collaborate and network across the college, P&F and business people across the college community as there maybe opportunities we are missing/not aware of to support EDGE

# data[].attributes.body
Do we need an EDGE Day? Or maybe just an extended afternoon?
Need support as often feel isolated as EDGE teachers need time to meet to see where there can be crossovers or opportunities to share eg. transport.
Regular EDGE teacher meetings.
Brainstorming team across the college for ideas.
Should EDGE be all teachers in MS so it spreads the time so some teachers are on one week and off another week to plan the program and make arrangements.
