Information for Staff

1. Thank you for your efforts today, a chance to learn new knowledge as well as a chance to reflect on practice. A reminder that Ako feedback sheets will be up in the staffroom for a few more days next week if there is anything else that you would like to add.

2. This week has seen the release of the first discussion document around NCEA review. It is worthwhile read for all secondary teachers as there are quite big changes that have been put into the proposal.
Link to document https://conversation.education.govt.nz/conversations/ncea-have-your-say/big-opportunities-he-aria-nui/discussion-documents/

If you would like to give feedback on the proposals (Big Opportunities) that have been outlined you can complete either a survey, or a more detailed submission. The links can be found HERE.

3. Ako Teacher Job Description: In term 1, Ako teachers worked with the year level Dean to discuss the expectations of the role of Ako teacher here at CGHS. When compiling the information, there were a lot of similarities bought up between the different year levels. The job description is now available. If there are changes or suggestions, please pass these on to BLS or PWL by the end of week 6 (8 June). Job Description - Final Draft can be found HERE.
