National Education Priorities

The School will determine its priorities by focussing on national priorities

and identifying local priorities.

National priorities are currently determined to be:

Providing a safe physical and emotional environment for students.

Providing opportunities for success in the New Zealand Curriculum.

Improving literacy and numeracy, especially in years 1 4.

Developing a range of assessment and evidence gathering practices that provide

sufficiently comprehensive data to evaluate the progress and achievement ofstudents.

Developing and implementing teaching and programmes aimed at improving

outcomes for students who are not achieving, or who are at risk of not achieving, or

who have special needs.

Improving the achievement of Maori students.

Reporting to students and parents on achievement of individual students, and to the

community on groups of students and the students as a whole.

Providing Career education and guidance for Years 7 & 8. Special emphasis will be

given to those at risk.

Local priorities will be identified through:

Self Review

Written Survey consultation

Board discussion

Staff discussion and professional knowledge

In meeting the national and local priorities, the school undertakes to work within the National

Administration Guidelines framework.


6/44


New Zealands Cultural Diversity

Auckland Normal Intermediate as appropriate to its community will develop procedures and

practices that reflect New Zealands cultural diversity and the unique position of Maori. In

recognising the unique position of Maori, we will take all reasonable steps to promote

Tikanga Maori (Maori culture) and Te Reo Maori (Maori language).

We have three key goals to promote Maori language:

1. To encourage Maori people to use the Maori language in various daily activities.

2. To celebrate the place of the Maori language in New Zealand history and modern

society.

3. To generate and/or harness, and actively employ, goodwill towards the Maori language

within the wider New Zealand population.

This is achieved through: Language events and activities.

A range of celebrations (e.g. cultural festival, performances) and

Promotion of Maori language throughout the school at a class, team and year group

level.

Instruction in and through Te Reo and Tikanga Maori:

Should a parent request instruction in and through Te Reo and Tikanga Maori the

Board of Trustees would action that request by:

a. Discussing with parents and whanau each students need, requirements.

b. Source first language support from local resources if possible.c. Employ a teacher trained in Te Reo.

d. If a Te Reo teacher was not available explore other options such as

correspondence school.

Pasifika Language

At ANI we promote Pasifika languages and culture through celebration, song, dance and

annual consultation with our Pasifika community.

A fono is held in Term 4 where parents/caregivers are encouraged to attend and give us

feedback on the needs and aspirations and direction of our Pasifika students.


7/44


A strategy determines where you want to go and makes sure each step you take is a step

in that direction.

Strategic Planning

Overview of Strategic Plan

How the Strategic Plan will be achieved

NOTE:

Our Strategic Plan was developed in consultation with teachers, students and the Board of

Trustees. During this consultation phase we were aware of the impact the new curriculum

would have on the direction of our school over the next three years. It was therefore

important to view the plan as a work in progress subject to change document as we

continue to take small steps in determining our future.

Student Achievement Targets

Targets 2008

The following target relates to ANIs Strategic Plan. It is one of our future focused goals.

CORE TARGET

Strategic Goal:

To further develop, sustain and enhance our core business.

Target:

80% of the targeted group of students will be able to assess their learning using thelanguage of solo taxonomy in the context of Inquiry.

Target Group:

A random sample of 5 boys and 5 girls from each class (first 5 on the register).

Baseline Data:

In term two a baseline survey will be conducted to assess how students are usingsolo taxonomy in the inquiry process.

How we will achieve the target:

Term OneTeachersReflect on work done in 2007 relating to Inquiry also relate to guest speakers atTeacher Only Day (Principals Stories 30th January and Mark Treadwelll 11thFebruary).Through discussion with the Core group determine what the needs are relating to the

future direction of the school.Look at research relating to Inquiry and a common language throughout the school.Discuss research with Core Group.Determine that SOLO is the correct framework to build Inquiry Learning on atAuckland Normal Intermediate.Get outside facilitator (Pam Hook) to discuss how SOLO would impact at ANI andthe set target and prepare action plan.

Staff meeting one introduce SOLO Taxonomy. Give examples of each of thestages and some possible ways it could be taught. Prepare PowerPoint.Teachers access resources that identify SOLO Taxonomy stages and theassociated language that relates to each stage.


36/44


Term TwoStudentsTarget group is identified and survey administered to get childrens before views onusing SOLO Taxonomy.Children to use SOLO Taxonomy in class.Teachers

Teachers to experiment with SOLO Taxonomy.CORE group to develop resources including SOLO Taxonomy applied toquestioning and SOLO Taxonomy applied to thinking skills.CORE group to work with teaches at planning sessions so SOLO can beexperimented with in current units (via forum meetings).

Staff meeting two Teachers to work in small groups to use SOLO in allaspects of the curriculum and make up activities that use the appropriatelanguages at each of the stages.
