Following significant consultation with key stakeholders, the department has developed a new model called the Tailored Learning Provision (TLP). 

The goal of the TLP model is to better support young people who are vulnerable to chronic non-attendance, early school leaving and education disengagement to remain connected to school and ultimately improve learning outcomes.

Our school has been invited to further develop the TLP model during 2024.

We are currently working closely with the department to understand the practical operations of TLP model and will be seeking student and staff feedback and learnings during the coming year.

You can read further detail on the South Australia Tailored Learning Provision model here:

SchoolTV - PHYSICAL ACTIVITY & EXERCISEKate BurdettMon, 17 Apr 2023 01:35:00 +0000/news-events/2023/4/17/schooltv-physical-activity-amp-exercise53686b4ae4b0e77173cd2f60:53686c7ee4b0f23ef9d4b83d:6438a9ff0e48603e58aa2bc1In this edition of SchoolTV - PHYSICAL ACTIVITY & EXERCISE

In the last decade, children’s participation in physical activity and exercise has been in decline. In this digital age, children are using computers and mobile devices, not only for learning, but for relaxation and recreation purposes. This sedentary lifestyle is having a detrimental effect on today’s youth. The key is finding the balance.

Research shows, that regular physical activity and exercise leads to changes in the brain. It improves cognitive function, elevates mood, enhances learning and improves academic outcomes. Playing sport helps kids develop fundamental movement skills impacting positively on their confidence, self-esteem and ability to develop social skills. Parents play an important role in helping children establish positive habits that will benefit their children in the long-term.

In this edition of SchoolTV, parents will discover practical advice relating to the benefits of regular physical activity and exercise, as well as tips on how to get their kids motivated and moving more.

We hope you take time to reflect on the information offered in this edition of SchoolTV and we always welcome your feedback. If you have any concerns about your child, please contact the school counsellor for further information or seek medical or professional help.

Here is the link to the Physical Activity & Exercise edition of SchoolTV
