82. Differentiated Support
I see consultants as the GLUE that holds system and school improvement together. For several years now I have had the luxury to meet with Primary and Secondary schools in the Eastern Region of MACS. They have had PL that has embraced Whole Group – Small Group and individualized learning with me and also their Eastern Regional Consultants. Pre-preparation and attendance by all is a pre-requisite. Julie Stewart talks to me about the hidden benefit of COVID as ZOOM Meetings have kept schools ‘on track’ in learning together in very small, personaliazed groups.

How good is it when students become teachers!! A Kindergarten student in the Diocese of Lismore is excelling in his Oral Language Development when ‘Learning from Home’!! This student’s impressive growth and achievement just doesn’t happen by chance. It takes careful planning on the part of his leaders and teachers – carefully crafted concepts from the Assessment Waterfall Chart (CLARITY p.124) such as: Learning Intentions, Success Criteria, Descriptive Feedback, Peer- and self-assessment and finally Individual Goal setting. Then students can become teachers to their teachers and peers!

Secondary Science Teacher, Josh Dennis, says it all: Case Management Meetings (CMMs) are ‘terrific Professional Development (PD) for all teachers’. When Data Walls lead to CMMs everyone learns – to express ideas, share instructional strategies, and gather the ‘just right resources’ needed. There must be time during the school day for teachers and leaders to come together at CMMs – and the results are in: students grow and achieve when all teachers know how to teach all students!

LWTs are powerful when used as a non-evaluative tool to grow practice in every school and system. The 5 questions are useful in collecting data on how well students are taking ownership of their learning. They also inform leaders’ and teachers’ next steps in staff members’ Professional Learning.
