Through the COVID intensive learning support program, Banora Point High Schools received funding to employ additional educators who deliver small group tuition for students who need it most.
The program started during Term 1, 2021 and is running throughout the school year.
Key features
- small group tuition is provided by additional educators – including casual and temporary teachers, retired teachers and student teachers – who will work closely with classroom teachers to make sure the tuition is well targeted
- the tuition focuses on core content and skills, particularly literacy and numeracy
- schools identify students who will benefit from intensive support
- small group tuition involves supplementary teaching and learning support for groups of 2-5 students. Students are taught consistently for a predetermined amount of time with the intention to reinforce classroom instruction.
