A key focus during this period was to closely monitor the progress and well-being of our new entrants and Year 1- 3 students. Establishing strong academic and behavioural foundations in Years 1 to 3 is critical to ensuring long-term student success. Early identification and support are essential to prevent the development of "long tails" — where students begin to fall behind and continue to struggle in later years. As such, targeted strategies were implemented to ensure early learners are on track and receiving the necessary support to thrive.
