Innovation Journey
Extensive research has led to significant changes being introduced into the junior programme. From an organisational perspective, this has resulted in a reduction in the number of teachers responsible for the core programmes of the Year 9 and 10 classes which have been introduced into the innovation.

Students and teachers are far better able to know each other, and teachers therefore able to more effectively cater for the individual needs of their students. Of equal significance has been the emphasis placed on programmes which promote student thinking and independence in their learning. There is an opportunity for programmes to be cross-curricular, and an expectation that as much importance is placed on the process of learning as on the contact and product of that learning. An emphasis on the use of technologies is also central to the approach expected. This approach is consistent with the requirements placed on the school to give particular attention to numeracy and literacy.
