Our school supports teachers in planning for and setting of high standards in the Curriculum by the establishment of specialized structures and processes, specific to Caladenia needs, and reflected in whole school common understandings/common best practice strategies/common assessments.

Specialists

We have specialist teachers (led by a Coordinator for each) in Physical Education, Music, Art and Japanese. These Specialists contribute to the whole school excellence in teaching and learning through quality teaching strategies used by all classroom teachers.

We are proud of the excellence in our Specialist learning areas through high achievement in student skills and progress.

Teacher Leadership

Targets & Standards

Our targets are listed in our Business Plan.

We have very high expectations of student achievements and standards – our Standards Policy reflects those expectations of students and staff. We employ data as a means for setting priorities and targets – data-driven decisions reflect actual challenges and we meet those challenges from all sections of our Curriculum and student development each year so that our challenges become a continuous process for self-improvement. We believe that a school is dynamic and ever-changing and we must be flexible in order to use change management as a continuous tool for improvement, no matter however small that may be.

MAC

Multi-Age Academic Class (MAC)

Our MAC is a composite class of Years 4,5,6 students who are very high achievers coming through the school. This is one of only two schools in the State (Wattle Grove and Caladenia) that have full-time classes for high achieving students. The two schools work together to maintain strategic directions in the education of these students. Their program of work is according to the WA Curriculum but at an accelerated pace. Our success in this educational provision has been outstanding – student development and academic achievement are both accentuated – academic achievement without sound personal growth is not our intention.

Our objectives are to provide every student with the very best educational provision available and we have been successful in that objective for many years.
