At Santiago College, high quality teaching involves a multidisciplinary approach that provides an engaging learning environment for all students. This approach is based on conceptual, inquiry- driven learning, placing the student at the center of the process, focusing on skills, values and knowledge, and allowing for agency and action within local and global contexts.
Teachers implement continuous, ongoing assessment of student learning, enabling both teachers and students to identify areas of strength and weakness to adjust their teaching and learning strategies accordingly. Teachers use strategies for inclusion and differentiation to remove barriers to learning, to encourage student engagement, and to instill a positive mindset towards learning.
Teachers engage in continuous reflection and collaborative planning, seeking opportunities to improve their teaching practices and stay current with the latest research and trends in education.
High-quality teaching at Santiago College is focused on empowering students to become active, lifelong learners who are equipped with the skills, knowledge, values and confidence to succeed in a rapidly changing world.
