Strategic Plan & Governance

Strategic Plan 2021 – 2025

Our Strategic Plan is grounded in our mission and seeks to leverage off our current strong position. Working from four key domains, we aim to ensure Cabra Dominican College students can continue to access a high quality, contemporary education that enables them to thrive – both now and in the future.

Our central domain Consciously Catholic, mindfully Dominican articulates who we are and what we do, recognising the importance of the Sacramental life of our work. The three other domains are no less significant, and highlight our commitment to the Cabra community.

  • Lead for an inclusive community represents our steadfast commitment to shape a connected community of welcome, that is inclusive, caring, just and equitable.
  • Strengthen and innovate for the future represents our commitment to remain future focussed, meeting the current and anticipating the future requirements of our community.
  • Pursue excellence and growth is bold and purposeful and represents our commitment to growth and improvement across all areas of the college.
