Tutoring

By Peter Drummond

Small Group Tutoring Initiative

The Small Group Tutoring Initiative is being funded by the Department of Education and Training for 2021 to support students following the disruption during 2020 due to Covid-19. Small groups of students at Newcomb SC will receive tutoring both inside their normal classroom (that is, where an extra teacher/tutor is present in the classroom working with a small group) or in some cases small groups are withdrawn for one or two periods per week to receive tutoring. Most of the tutoring will occur in English and Math's classes.

The tutoring program is open to students across all year levels (Years 7-12). Up to 20% of our students at the College can receive tutoring.

The school is in the final stages of recruiting tutors for the program. We have done this in a variety of ways. For example, some part-time staff have had their hours extended with others being recruited from outside the school or have time re-allocated to tutoring. We are also in the process of identifying students who will be part of the program.

Tutors will begin working with some students from the beginning of Week 4 (Monday, 15th February). Whilst most tutoring will occur in the first half of the year it is anticipated that some tutoring will continue until the end of the year. Tutors will develop Learning Plans for each student. They will work collaboratively with the current teachers to determine the gaps in learning.

The funding for the tutoring program is for 2021 only. However, the College will evaluate the program towards the end of the year and make decisions about whether to continue parts of the program into 2022.

If you have any questions, please contact Mr. McLeod or Mr. Drummond at the College.
