Developing a Middle Years Approach

This workshop provides a broad introduction to the possibilities for action in the Middle Years at the individual school level.

Key issues addressed during the workshop include: What are the Middle Years of Schooling? What are the key areas for development in adolescent learners? What are the implications of adolescence for teaching and learning? How can we respond most effectively at the school level to the challenge of the Middle Years?

Outcomes:
