Welcome to our information page for Learning@Home. It is our deep hope that parents, students and the broader school community would use this resource as a means of accessing the information they need as they continue to partner with the school in providing quality Christian Education to their child.
 

Year 11/12 lessons will look different as we enter into Term 2. Students won't have their scheduled Timetabled lessons with their teacher, as was the case in Term 1.

 

Year 11/12 teachers will be working from the online Microsoft Teams platform as well as negotiating a time with their students around a more online interactive approach, due to the volume of content that is required to be delivered, as it is a TASC subject. This could look like a weekly catch-up class session if the subject caters for a video meeting. Please know that instructional teaching of content and assessment, will be communicated out on a weekly basis, however, this may look a little different from teacher to teacher, especially those enrolled in practical subjects.

​

Year 11/12 students studying at school will be timetabled as if they are in an extended Study Line and assigned to the Library as their Learning Space. We expect that they are capable of independent, self-directed learning and they therefore will not be allocated a supervisory teacher beyond the usual supervision provided by Library staff during Study Lines. Sign-out privileges will also not be in operation during this period; once Year 11/12 students are at school they will need to remain at school until the end of each school day.

 

We would also request that students in Year 11/12 maintain their Learning@Home program if that is what you have nominated for them. We are aware that many are capable of making their own way to school and may want to do so (for example, to complete a test or see a teacher) but we would like to minimise this so that we can maintain accurate attendance, ensure appropriate health and hygiene requirements, and avoid disruption to what will be a completely new timetable and way of operating. Your help and support in this is really appreciated.

​

We are still waiting for direction from TASC about future adjustments, examinations and folios and will keep you informed when we become aware of these changes. If you have any further questions, please contact the subject teacher, Year 11/12 Coordinator or Head of Curriculum.

​

As mentioned above, the main digital platform is Microsoft Teams, which all students (with access to a computer and the internet) can access at home via their Office365 email address and password. If your family has opted for paper-based curriculum resources, further information can be given by calling the School Office.

​

The Library will remain open for students Learning@school with normal day to day borrowing.

​For students Learning@home, we are still encouraging borrowing to take place. We cannot have you going without books!!

For students Kinder to Year 12, we are happy to organize a book pack to be collected from the allocated pick up area at the school upon request.   Requests would need to be in by Wednesday afternoon ready for the Friday pickup. Renewal requests may be sent through to library@leighland.tas.edu.au

Returns may be placed in the Book Return Tub which will be located in the MPH.

​

We will be including on this page information regarding University, Career and ATAR Score information that relates to the decisions made that can and will impact Year 11 and 12 due to the Corona Virus. If you have any concerns, please contact the school.
