What is effective middle-schooling pedagogy for both girls and boys?
When will collaboration start between the two colleges around Pedagogy and meeting the needs of both girls and boys?
What consultation will take place with MM staff before any decisions are made about technology to be used in 2018 and beyond?
Is SHC committed to opening up the IT platform to meet the Learning Needs of all students?
When will joint PD take place between staff from both colleges ?
What does research tell us about the Teaching and Learning for coed and single-gender students?

Questions on other/ facilities-  staff forum

How much collaboration or consultation in the design and process will Marymount staff have.  Can you release the draft plan for buildings so we can feed back changes.

Music area - SHC is sub standard.  Will this be improved to support a more orchestral focus as well as greater numbers of girls learning and wider range of instruments?

Instrumental tutors from Marymount to come over as well?

Will the music room be located on the ground to facilitate better access and movement of bulky and heavy orchestral instruments without injury to staff and students - perhaps a 2 tonne hydrolic lift.  Also a close carpark for carting equipment to and from the instrument repairs shop as orchestral instruments need continual maintenance.

1) Will iPads be phased out and Google Chrome phased in?
2) Will resource/ budgeting be restricted from next year?
3) Will equipment and resources stay at current site or will  it go to SHC for eg SHC do not have Self Defence bags, Archery equipment, little Annie's .
4) will UBds disappear?

Considerations:

1) Experience and specialty in teaching classes be considered?

Opportunities:

1)  Will learning support be included at SHC in the same depth as we have now.

How will mobile technology be embraced in learning given the very large differences between iPad and Chromebook.

Questions on teaching and learning-  staff forum

Research has proven middle school and single gender classes proven successful. What provisions will be made for single gender classes?

MArymount/SHCM with different pedagogical understanding, where do we start? Different starting points this is a concern.

Pedagogy discussions around iPad and chrome books is important, has this IT decision been made or will the consultation process be honored?

Single gender classes? Which and what/ subjects? Year level considerations?
What will class sizes be?

Marymount has a more instrumental/orchestral program this needs to be a focus to be inclusive of all, as girls instrumental choices are different and supported.

Parents at the forums were concerned about continued rigour, programs, planned activities, excursions etc will these continue 2018 and beyond. Staff also echo these concerns at Marymount forum today.

Is this information going to be considered?

When will we be consulted on our pedagogy and how that will be accommodated in new learning spaces?
When will we be consulted on our teaching preferences?

When and how will curriculum mapping take place? Textbook access? Class novels?
What in-class ESO support will continue?
What diagnostic tests can we continue doing e.g. MYAT, PAT to help us support student learning?
How is the timetable going to be constructed eg compulsory language in year 9? Electives? Equal access to typically gendered subjects e.g. Food tech and textiles and wood tech?
Just what classes are segregated?
