The College Leadership Team has identified the need to strengthen and formalise core literacy and numeracy programs. To support this, the College has selected two evidence-based programs — Read Write Inc. for literacy and Big Ideas in Number for numeracy.
The College is also investing in the professional growth of its teaching staff to strengthen teaching and learning strategies that are better suited to Anangu students. Weekly teacher workshops and professional development sessions are held, with explicit learning activities modelled and practised by staff.
Staff development is guided by the AITSL framework, which provides clear standards, progressions and expectations. The Director of Teaching and Learning and the Deputy Principal oversee and support these professional development programs.
