At Rosamond, we are committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive learning environment using evidence-based teaching practices that put students at the centre of their own learning. Our Instruction Framework sets out the standard structure of a lesson at Rosamond.
This preamble sets out how the Instructional Framework links to the:
- Victorian Teaching and Learning Model 2.0
- HITS – High Impact Teaching Strategies
- HWIS – High Impact Wellbeing Strategies
This framework aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to become emotionally regulated, confident, resilient, and independent learners. The framework creates a consistent approach and structure for Teaching and Learning.
