Mannering Park Public School is an Early Action for Success school and is fortunate to have the expertise of the Instructional Leader, Belynda Gruden. Belynda is in charge of implementing the Early Action for Success model and supports and trains teachers in best practice, focussing on K-2 classrooms. As part of Early Action for Success K-2 teachers are required to complete, analyse and reflect on student's data every 5 weeks.
Early action for success brings together
- quality leadership,
- identifying individual levels of attainment in literacy and numeracy, essential for teaching that is personalised to individual student learning needs, and
- tiered interventions in literacy and numeracy.
To determine which students should be involved in literacy and numeracy interventions, the schools in Early Action for Success have mapped the progress of every Kindergarten to Year 2 against an end-of-year expected standard for Reading, Writing and Number.
