Dear All,
Re: Strategy 2018
We would like to inform you of the progress that we are making in the development of our TES 2018 Strategic Plan.
In last month’s survey you were asked for your comments, ideas and suggestions regarding the Vision 2018 and Strategic Goals that the TES Board of Governors (TESBOG), Representatives of Section Councils and the TES Senior Management Team drafted in their February 2008 meeting.
Our external consultant, Ms. Wendela Elsen, analysed the survey responses and met with volunteers from the parents and staff respondents last week to validate the results of the survey and to expand on ideas and suggestions which came out of the survey. We would like to thank you all for your valuable input in the survey and the focus groups.
A Strategic Plan Task Force, consisting of representatives from TESBOG, Section Councils, School Sections, Central Administration and parents has been formed and is responsible for writing the Strategic plan 2018 based on the outcomes of the survey and the focus groups. We are planning to finalise this plan before the end of the school year in June 2008.
In the attachment you can read the Mission of TES, Vision 2018 and the Strategic Goals as adjusted by the Task Force based on your comments and suggestions. As the Strategic Goals will focus our attention to certain areas of development in TES, we will continue operating according to our TES Mission and “provide educational excellence and European culture and values within the context of Taiwanese Society”. Please note that the existing Core Values of our school are still valid but are also currently undergoing slight revision.
Please feel free to contact me, the CEO - John Nixon, or any member of TESBOG or your Section Council should you have questions about the development of the TES 2018 Strategic Plan.
We will keep you informed on progress.

Chair – TES Board of Governors
