The Hodgman Liberal Government is committed to lifting Tasmania’s education outcomes to create a job-ready generation.
Today, I am very pleased to announce the appointment of Jennifer Earle to the position of Executive Officer for the new Office of Tasmanian Assessment, Standards and Certification (TASC).
A result of collaboration across Tasmania’s education sectors with the support of the Catholic Education Office, Independent Schools Tasmania and the Department of Education, TASC replaces the Tasmanian Qualifications Authority.
The office maintains independent regulation of assessment and certification and provides clarity in the areas of curriculum and data management, while helping to ensure greater stakeholder engagement, improved standards, and openness and transparency.
Ms Earle has an extensive background across education, teaching and leadership, with broad experience in both the government and non-government education sectors as well as interstate and overseas.
Over the past 22 years, she has worked across a number of schools in both Tasmania and New South Wales in the areas of maths and science, as well as developing and implementing teacher training in East Timor.
I congratulate Ms Earle on her appointment, and wish her well in her new role of helping us to lift education standards in Tasmania.
