Our School is composed of brilliant people: staff, students and our Clinical Associates. We have achieved amazing outcomes and growth over the last few years. We need to take stock and capitalise on our strengths and achievements to date. We see opportunities in ensuring our impacts in education and research continue and are recognised and supported. We can refine our processes to improve efficiency. Lastly and most importantly our success only happens because of our people. We will engage, support and develop them so we can be the best we can be, as individuals and a School.
