These remarkable results are a testament to the Gladesville Primary School staff and their dedication to targeted school improvement. This improvement has been led by Keylie Groen in her role as out Primary Maths Specialist at Gladesville, with the support of all teaching and learning staff. Staff have participated in a range of professional learning opportunities and developed deep understandings about literacy instruction and student engagement.
Over the past few years students have increased their love of mathematics by engaging in rich learning tasks, using purposeful mathematical equipment including mentor texts with rich mathematical language and being supported by enthusiastic teachers who share their love of maths everyday.
Congratulations to our students and staff on these wonderful outcomes!
Maths really is so much fun!!!
