2019 Year 10 Tier 2 Group Tracking At Year 10, 24 students were initially identified as Tier 2 with one student leaving at the end of Term 2. The data collected comparing Term 1 sample pieces to Term 2 and Term 3 CATs suggest that 33% of students have confidently graduated into Tier 1 by gaining results of at least Level 5 Beginner on both pieces of CAT writing. However, 71% of identified students have earned at least Level 5 Beginner on one piece of CAT Writing. Further breakdown of the data shows: Creative Writing - nine students are now hitting Level 5; 12 students jumping at least two subsets (three didn't do one of the pieces). Formal Writing (23 students tracked) - 16 students now hitting at least Level 5; 16 students jumping at least two subsets (three didn't do one of the pieces). Overall, the goal has been achieved in part at Year 10. While the majority of students are not writing consistently at Level 5 based on two assessments, the majority can be said to have been boosted as shown by the subsets moved from the beginning of the year writing to their CAT results. This indicates the identified Year 10s were further behind in their writing and had more ground to make up during the year than the Year 9 identified students.

Teachers reflect and describe individual strategies they intend on using on KAMAR Student Notes. This allows a cross-curricular approach to be used for students identified in multiple subjects. These may be specific to the Science Capability of related to student self-management or their work ethic. These strategies are then incorporated into the teaching programme over subsequent units. Students are identified as Tier 2 using KAMAR mark book and collated in a department folder on Science Admin on Sharepoint. The tables below show the students who have been identified as Tier 2 at the end of Term One and Three this year.

Recognition of the importance of student well-being will be supported by staff. Result: Success Taieri College Charter (2019 to 2021) - Page 39 of 40
Very successful teacher only day followed up by the formation of a “Restorative Practices” teachers committee. Regular professional development snippets were delivered during staff meetings and staff were introduced to several specific strategies around good restorative practice. Staff have access to several resources on a specific SharePoint site where than can easily access these resources giving the capacity to effectively implement good restorative practice in their classrooms. Further resources will be developed and a greater understanding of restorative practice will be undertaken in 2020. L5 GOAL 5 We will work with Myth to develop a new platform for our college website. Result: Success Successfully implemented the new website and training of staff has been completed. This is easier to use and update and works on all platforms. GOAL 6 Our Professional Learning and Performance Appraisal (PLPA) programme will be administered via Arinui school wide appraisal tool. Result : Partial Success Difficult to gauge as we were “ambushed” by the removal of appraisal requirements from the PPTA Collective agreement in the middle of the year. I have advised Arinui that we will not be using their software package in 2020. We wait with anticipation for the direction that we are heading in regards to appraisal and attestation of Teaching Standards. Taieri College Charter (2019 to 2021) - Page 40 of 40
