On Thursday the 29th October, Tagai State College was presented with Queensland’s State Award for Excellence in the Senior Phase of Learning.

The award - a part of the Department of Education & Training’s “Showcase Awards for Excellence in Schools” program - recognises the success of the College’s Service Guarantee.

In considering the submissions from the various State Finalists’, the Judging Panel were impressed by the significant curriculum and organisational reform undertaken at the Secondary Campus over the past 3 years and the dramatic improvement of in real Year 12 student outcomes in the Torres Strait.

The award was accepted on behalf of the College by Tagai’s Associate Principal Judy Ketchell and TSIREC’s President Ned David.
