Justification/problem

4 What do you view as government’s role in addressing this need?
5 Could the AEF’s activities be provided by any other government department or agency (state or federal), non-Government organisation or private company?
Effectiveness

• improving school leader engagement and competence in leading schools to deliver Asia related content
• improving teacher competency in delivering Asia learning in schools
• improving student engagement with Asia learning in schools
• responding to changing policy environment and external needs?
8 Have there been any unintended benefits or costs associated with the AEF? If so, what are these?
9 What could you improve about the program design or delivery to achieve a greater impact?
Future focus
10 Would the objectives/outcomes of the AEF continue to be met if Australian government funding ceased? What would be the impact of ceasing the funding?
