Engaging the Learner

Accelerating Progress and Achievement for Pasifika Learners
Evelyn Niua and Rosemary Mose, Ministry of Education

Parents Matter

A successful fono when no one wants to leave.

Pasifika Talanoa
  • Invited parents and Pasifika staff to be part of the planning group
  • Personalised invitations and phone calls to parents and families
  • Short, sharp programme - students involved (introduction, performance)
  • Informal, relaxed tone and afternoon tea to share
  • Fun and engaging - focus on big C leading to deeper level conversations around little c
    • Big C open the door to developing relationships so you can engage around the little c stuff

  • What they said
    • They want students to do well
    • Students to achieve at the same level as other students
    • Celebrate

Spiral of Inquiry, Learning and Action
Timperley, Kaser and Halbert, 2014
