Teacher Aide Graduation
Congratulations to our wonderful teacher aides who have just graduated as qualified English Language Assistants.
Mrs Yang and Mrs Kim have studied hard this year to complete a six month course run by the Ministry of Education. This involved monthly assignments, and professional development days followed by an in-school visit from their facilitators.
Topics covered were: Developing and enriching concepts and language, scaffolding language, effective reading to and with students and effective writing development with students.
Well done ladies, we are proud of you. See the photos below of the Korean Fan Dance group, performing at Baverstock Oaks school, as part of the graduation ceremony for the ELA course.
