Intended Audience
Teachers of EALD learners in Years R-1

(Specifically, targeted at teachers who have engaged with FYOSLA half day oral language assessment and need to complete the remaining Grammar section of LEAP Levels 1-6)

Rationale

All schools that intend submitting EALD data for CESA funding allocations need to ensure that teachers who conduct EALD assessments have participated in relevant professional learning about how to use the LEAP Levels.

The Learning English: Achievement and Proficiency (LEAP) Levels  is the tool used by teachers of EALD learners to formatively assess the Standard Australian English (SAE) proficiency of EALD students. 

Description - 2x2 Hour Workshops via Teams Meeting Platform

• Preparatory work for the first session will be communicated to participants prior to the session.
• Build knowledge about the language/grammar of the LEAP Levels 1-6 language [oral and early writing].
• Apply this knowledge through guided, collaborative and independent use of the LEAP Levels to assess samples of language and identify learning goals.

This workshop will take place over 2 sessions and participation at both sessions is required

AITSL National Professional Standards for Teachers Include
