‘Signposts: Research points on how Victorian government schools have improved student performance’ (click this link to download the full report: www.eduweb.vic.gov.au/edulibrary/public/.../Signposts_report.pdf) is the latest research from the Department of Education. 

 

Darren Pereira has developed a 1.5 hour targeted PD session addressing 5 of the critical areas governing student performance.

 

Having spoken to almost 90,000 senior school students & staff across Australia & NZ over the last 7 years, Darren Pereira is considered to be one of the leading consultants & speakers in:

 

·         maximising student achievement; &

·         developing teaching best practice.

1.     Raising staff’s expectations of students

 

·         how to instill confidence in students so that they believe in their abilities to learn & achieve

·         how to build a teacher’s sense of self efficacy so that they don’t inadvertently limit student success  

 

2.     Raising students’ expectations for academic excellence

 

·         how to reinforce a positive self image in students so that they expect & achieve their best

·         how to identify beliefs & language that limit student achievement & turn it around quickly & effectively

·         how to goal set with students to raise performance

 

3.     Managing classroom behaviour

 

·         how to set & enforce ‘ground rules’ for acceptable classroom behaviour so that teachers can concentrate on delivering quality teaching; &

·         how to use restorative practices to improve & reduce bad behaviour

 

4.     Engaging & motivating ‘Y Gen’ students

 

·         how any teacher can use 8 simple, yet highly effective ‘edu-tainment’ (education + entertainment) strategies to maximise student engagement

·         how to intrinsically motivate students to perform to their potential & not their past performance

 

The way Darren will conduct this seminar will be unique and certainly not a ‘chalk & talk’ session.  This is PD like it’s never been delivered before & is sure to give your staff highly effective strategies that they will be able to use immediately!
