Teachers Learning

Professional Development 

Teaching staff have a year long professional development program which includes personal learning opportunities and day long and after school professional development programs. The aim of all staff education programs is to improve learning outcomes for students.  

The Director of Pedagogy and Professional Learning, Jenny Connolly leads the program. 

Recently all staff participated in a Literacy Strategy Sharing program after school in the Junior Learning Centre. They worked collaboratively to further develop their skills and share best practice through group activities.
