Tutor Learning Initiative Program 2021

Our school will be providing over 200 students with additional targeted learning support. This extra support is available through the Victorian Government’s $250 million investment in the Tutor Learning Initiative (TLI), which supports schools to address disruptions to students’ learning as a result of COVID-19.

The Tutor Learning Initiative enables schools across Victoria to engage qualified teachers as tutors to work with small groups of students and support their learning. The initiative is consistent with Australian and international evidence, which shows that small group tutoring is one of the most effective educational interventions available to support students to progress in their learning.

The Tutor Learning Initiative teacher will work with selected students to understand their literacy and numeracy progress to date and set goals for future learning.

The TLI teacher will also work with each student’s regular classroom teachers to minimise disruptions, ensure the program complements the standard curriculum, and support the classroom lessons. The TLI teacher will support each student in a small group setting of up to five students by working with them directly in class.

This tutoring support will be provided for two periods, and small group learning sessions will occur twice a week. Student progress will be monitored as part of the program and updates about their progress will be available throughout the year.
