Who should attend?
Participating schools are required to register a small team (2-4), dependent on context, to attend these workshops. Each school team should include a combination of the following:
- School executive
- Practising Stage 6 teachers.
School executive involvement is important to support each designated school team to analyse their school's evolving evidence base and support the design and iteration of a bespoke HSC Strategy School Implementation plan.
The involvement of practising Stage 6 teacher/s is recommended as authentic modelling of HSC Strategy's high-impact teaching practices inside the school gate is required.
Benefits for schools
This program will help schools create a structure to:
- professionally develop its school leaders to provide effective support for Stage 6 teachers implementing HSC Strategy practices
- plan for collaborative activity at school using protocols that support teachers to safely consider their own theory of teaching practice
- develop and iterate a school implementation model responsive to school-wide collections of evidence.
