In English, for instance, students would read a newspaper article, analyse it themselves and respond in groups or independently. With explicit teaching, though, key vocabulary is explained and rehearsed, along with the context of the story, before the article is read together. The deputy principal of Wairoa school in Bondi, Penelope Earp, said the new syllabus would finally put students with disabilities “front and centre”, not hidden in an appendix.
In a major shake-up, the syllabus overhaul also includes explicit content points to support students with intellectual disabilities across all subjects and ages, including the creative arts, health and PE.
