A project for instructional leaders of learning in primary contexts and Heads of Faculties and specialists primary and secondary educators.

This project is designed for leaders of learning who are focused on driving improved educational practice across their school through a focus on evidence informed practices and their implementation.

Participating schools will be supported in developing in-school and cross-school professional teams centered on:

• building teacher expertise in designing quality assessments aligned to the Achievement Standards of the Australian Curriculum
• collaborative moderation practices to enable a shared understanding of what student achievement looks like across a learning area.
• making informed on-balance judgements about student learning

A commitment to this project includes attendance at all professional learning workshops, developing common assessment criteria and collecting evidence of student learning to collaboratively moderate. There is an expectation that participating schools will collaboratively interrogate evidence to validate judgements about student learning.

Target Group

Instructional teams of leaders and educators across Foundation to Year 10.

Primary and Secondary specialist educators are encouraged to attend with a colleague who also teaches the same learning area to facilitate professional dialogue and collaborative moderation practices.

There is no fee to register.
