How it works

Carla facilitates a whole-day workshop tailored to your school’s needs. Together, the team works through curriculum mapping, assessment design, and audit readiness tasks. Staff leave with draft curriculum plans, sample tasks, and resources that are directly relevant to their programs. The session ends with a clear action plan, so your school knows exactly what to prioritise next. Alternatively schools can choose from the Areas of Support below and create a day totally unique to their schools needs.
