Covering the areas of gifted and talented education, inclusion, differentiation and disability, let us help you find out what individuals, executive, teams and whole staff really think is happening!
These resources are designed to help schools review current practice, implement positive, evidence-based and constructive change, and measure progress over time. The tools ask staff to reflect on whole-school practice in key areas.
What might be happening in one classroom, may not be occurring in another. What one teacher might believe to be policy, another teacher may not. A sub-school may be implementing differentiation well, when another has a long way to go. Knowing where your school is functioning as a whole is the key to planning school improvement and strategic change.

“She has supported our planning and differentiation for gifted students, which has ultimately led to a shift in how we approach our catering for these students within the classroom. Kylie quickly built rapport and trusting relationships with staff, whilst providing them with tools that can be directly applied to our context. Thanks to Kylie we are well on the way to embedding high quality teaching programs, assessment and enrichment that effectively cater for the needs of our gifted and highly able students."

“Kylie possesses a broad knowledge base regarding diverse ability students which she readily shares. Kylie provides both practical ideas for the classroom as well as the theory to back this up. We look forward to working further with Kylie during 2016, when she will take on a leadership focus, supporting school leaders to develop key plans for inclusion of students with diverse ability.”
