Kia ora koutou,
A kura I am supporting is desperate for how to apply the new curriculum refresh as expected to in classrooms that cover 4 year levels. This school has 2 classes, a Year 0-3 class and a Years 4-8 class and the teachers are having difficulty teaching to the children's current ability (most well below their year level), as well as exposing them to their actual year level curriculum.
If anyone has examples of how schools are doing this without running themselves ragged in planning please reach out! Or if anyone wants to korero and get our heads together around the curriculum, please reach out too.
Ngā mihi nui,
Joey
