Learning IntentionsLiteracy Leaders will:• Develop their awareness of the literacy and
language demands inherent within learning areas at NCEA levels 1-3
• Review their capacity to use data effectively to determine students’ literacy and language strengths and needs at senior levels
• Focus their attention on the literacy and language needs of priority learners: Māori, Pasifika, and learners with special educational needs.
• Review and develop their ability to support middle leaders to respond effectively to the identified literacy and language needs of students.

Subject-Specific Literacy
• Students experience the curriculum through the lens of each subject
• Each learning area has specific ways of processing and communicating knowledge which must be communicated to students
• Developing literacy practices in the context of each subject builds an understanding of how knowledge is constructed and produced (e.g. Reading from different perspectives in History)
• Texts and tasks increase in complexity and become more subject-specific as students move through senior school, requiring ongoing literacy learning.

The strategies that good readers employ are:• Predicting• Previewing• Questioning• Monitoring• Visualising• SummarisingThese strategies are appropriate in every learning area but they are actualised differently

Working with other Middle Leaders

How we work together in PLDEvidence shows the most effective professional learning
and development….
• is directly focused on raising student achievement
• uses the inquiry process to sustain this focus
• is a collaborative process
• is based around gathering evidence of shifts
• requires the embedding of processes and practices so that they become taken-for-granted features within school

Data CollectionSources of Evidence e.g.
• Student achievement data (NCEA results, asTTle, PAT, subject-specific data,...)
• Classroom observations• Interviews with teachers, middle leaders• Student voice • Learning area plans• Student learning pathways • School systems and processes – PLGs,
reporting, community links

An example of a focus group
• The school’s NCEA results were much stronger in the internals than in the externals (except in two subjects)
• Some teachers believed the externals were too difficult for many students
• Focus group of Y12 and 13 students with facilitator.

Data Analysis and Use
• How is data used within a learning area?
• Which pieces of data have the most influence over changing teacher practice and student outcomes?
• What does the data tell you about the literacy strengths and needs of the students?

Teaching as Inquiry in the NZC
![Page 17: Literacy Leaders Supporting Middle Leaders in Subject-Specific Literacy Practice Auckland 8 March](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815858550346895dc5b150/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Teaching as inquiry
• What is important (and therefore worth spending time on) given where the middle leaders are at
• What evidence-based strategies are most likely to help middle leaders achieve this?
• What happened as a result of the support? What are the next steps in my learning? In the learning of the middle leader?
