A NEW STRATEGIC PLAN
Building
on the KU
Difference
From 2008 to 2012 KU’s strategic plan,
Making the KU Difference provided the road
map used to navigate the organisation
through a period of enormous change;
both internally and in the broader sector.
So when the time came to develop a new
strategic plan in 2013, KU’s Board and
Executive sought to build on the strong
foundations of past experience, and target
new opportunities that will see KU retain
our reputation for quality as we grow and
thrive into the future.
Perhaps the most important part of this
process was the articulation of KU’s
values, which was the result of extensive
consultation with KU staff and families.
Launched in 2013, the new strategic plan,
Building on the KU Difference focuses
on supporting KU’s quality, staff and
sustainability over three years. Guided by
this plan, by 2015 KU will be proudly:
Delivering the best positive outcomes for
children and families
An inspired community of professionals
Witnessing that the ‘KU Difference’
is understood and valued
Developing and operating innovative
services models
Fostering equitable access and
participation
Shaping sector and government thinking
and policy
A well managed and sustainable
organisation
Of course, we know that a strategic plan is
more than just the outcomes it delivers at
the end. Often it’s the journey and all the
milestones along the way that deliver the
most meaningful learning, development
and growth in each of us, and in KU as a
whole. We look forward to sharing our
progress with you over the coming years.
