Editor's Notes
The L&T Network Inquiry plus delineated outcomes is a co-construction between Regions and Principal Groups. The timeline for the delivery of our outcomes in this space over 2014/2015 is as outlined above.
Additionally we have wanted to capture the opportunity to work collegially in regard to the exploration of options for reporting to parents. It is our recommendation that an additional outcome be added to our work over 2014/2015.
As we are aware there are 3 levels of curriculum – Intended, Enabled or Implemented and Achieved. The focus of all curriculum delivery is to design learning opportunities which ensure student progress over time. In this representation, student learning is produced, shaped and affected by four connected components. Each of these components plays a separate and distinct role in the process of student learning and each is interconnected with all of the others.
11. The first is the curriculum that defines what it is that students should learn, and the associated progression or continuum of learning.
12. The second is pedagogy that describes how students will be taught and supported to learn.
13. The third is assessment that identifies how well a student has (or has not) learnt specified content.
14. The fourth is reporting that explains to the student and the teacher where a student is on a learning continuum at the end of a specified period of schooling, and where this places them in relation to their own learning goals and/or the learning of their peers.
The whole school learning and teaching plan is a school’s response to the “what,” documented to assist teachers with the how, how well and where.
This Scope of Work aims to assist you as leaders to understand the progression of work that has commenced and will be advanced through the Learning and Teaching Networks in 2014 and 2015. Throughout our collaboration we will maintain a focus on 2 main concepts 1. Building the instructional capacity of principals and leadership teams to lead improvements in learning and teaching in the schools and 2. Ensuring customisation of the work to meet the needs of individual schools. This customisation will ensure a high quality product for every school – a well documented, high quality learning and teaching plan which articulates the way the school will ensure student access to core entitlements and opportunities to learn that content of the curriculum which has been deemed essential. In essence, by the end of 2014 each school will have documented their whole school learning and teaching plan explicitly linked to their school’s vision and underpinned by each school’s explicit and non negotiable commitments to learning and teaching design and practice. We are very aware that the way in which we go about the development of the Whole School Learning and Teaching Plan will assist principals, leadership teams and teachers to deepen their knowledge of the Intended Curriculum. We are therefore proposing that the plan be constructed in a number of complementary and iterative phases 1. Goals of the Learning Areas 2. Aims of the Strands (including substrands) and 3. Identification of the Learning Content in each strand and substrand by stage of schooling. Once stated this will enable each school to move with greater confidence to the enacting of the curriculum ie. the planning phase. Customised Reporting will also be an important “byproduct” of the whole school learning and teaching plan – determining what and when the school will teach and assess for reporting purposes and making this explicit for parents.
