Full-Day Professional Development
Hands-On Curriculum Mapping and Audit Readiness Training
Our full-day professional development sessions give staff the time and space to dive deeply into VM and VPC delivery. The focus is on practical, ready-to-use strategies that strengthen curriculum, improve compliance, and build teacher confidence.
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.
