Evidence-based practice webinar

EVENTS 28 Oct 2024, 5:00pm

Parents and educators, join us for an insightful webinar designed to empower you with the knowledge to enhance your child’s educational journey and achieve academic success. We will explore the transformative effects of evidence-based practices in education, with a special focus on explicit instruction and its significant impact on literacy outcomes.

With the recent Victorian Government announcement that all Victorian state primary schools must integrate synthetic phonics programs for Prep to Year 2 students by 2025, joining New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia state government policy, the need for every school to adopt evidence-based practices like explicit teaching has never been greater.

Haileybury has delivered evidence-based literacy and numeracy programs for 18 years and HRS’s teachers are experts in the Explicit Instruction Model — an evidence-based pedagogy that has been proven time and time again as the best way to develop the essential fundamentals of numeracy and literacy learning. Our students are reaping the rewards of Haileybury’s experience in this field.

Presented by our expert teaching and learning team and CEO | Principal, Derek Scott, this webinar will cover:

  • The power of explicit instruction: Discover how schools implementing evidence-based practices are enhancing literacy skills and laying a robust foundation for lifelong learning success.
  • Promoting excellence and equity: Learn how schools achieving high standards while maintaining equity are fulfilling Australia's educational potential through effective teaching methodologies.
  • Achieving NAPLAN and VCE success: With over 18 years of experience in evidence-based practices and explicit instruction, learn how Haileybury’s approach continues to deliver exceptional NAPLAN and VCE results, ensuring positive educational trajectories.
