New EOTC guidelines available
19 October 2009
Opportunities for students to learn in and about their community and environment have been enhanced with the recent publication of EOTC guidelines - Bringing the Curriculum Alive. The guidelines update an earlier version to take account of current teaching and safety practices and aim to help teachers extend the classroom outdoors or into the community.
They show boards, principals and teachers ways to provide quality learning experiences that are as safe as possible for students and staff while meeting the legal requirements. And they include more information on how to plan, manage and develop as well as the nuts and bolts of compliance. The resource includes an extensive toolkit for EOTC management to assist schools to keep up with best practice. Hard copies will be delivered to schools in the next few weeks.
You can download PDF copies of the guidelines at this link.
