Our school is committed to ensuring our programs meet the needs of our students. We endeavour to ensure all students experience success in learning through the following key initiatives:
Our Expert Teaching Team – A Collaborative Approach
A collaborative and collective effort is our standard way of working at Marsden. On CP days, when students are engaged in specialist lessons (e.g. Health, PE, The Arts: Prep to 3, LOTE: years 4 to 6, STEM etc.), our teachers work collaboratively in teams to plan the best possible learning experiences for students. In this dedicated PLC time each fortnight, teachers discuss which aspects of the curriculum should be a focus for the term, develop 'check in' assessments (used across the cohort), and create plans for targeted interventions (tier 2) for those students that need more time or instruction to attain proficiently in the selected aspects of the curriculum.
