Personalised Learning Plans
PLPs are personalised learning plans that tailor education to meet each student's individual needs and strengths. PLPs differ from IEPs/ILPs which are for students with disabilities or learning difficulties. PLPs aim to close achievement gaps between Indigenous and non-Indigenous students by actively involving learners, engaging students and parents, and responding to each student's uniqueness with high expectations. Teachers' role is to become co-learners, facilitate learning both in and out of school, and implement a rigorous but differentiated curriculum. Developing real partnerships through PLPs requires understanding students culturally, setting achievable goals, providing quality feedback, and building positive relationships through respect and commitment.

- 14. Why Is ItImportant? Getting to know your students is one of the most critical aspects of quality teaching and learning practice. For many years these beneficial and necessary conversations about student learning have not occurred between teachers, students and families. “Our people and the kids pick up fairly quickly if your fair dinkum or gammin, basically. By you going to those homes shows that respect for them and that you value them and that you’re willing to develop some sort of relationship with them and that you are fair dinkum about their kids. For some people that’s the challenge because it’s difficult for young teachers and some of those older, experienced teachers to get out of their comfort zone and go and do that. Can I also say that as an Indigenous person that it’s difficult aswell, that doesn’t come easy.” (Yolanda Coutts, Lockhart River SS).
