Literacy & Numeracy

Bridgewater Primary continues to ensure students achieve success in academic and personal fields. Results in the National Assessment Program for Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) are consistently high.

All children are supported to stretch themselves as learners, with children and teachers using a range of evidence (including standardised tests) to make determinations about the right level for each child.

Teachers and SSOs engage in a significant amount of professional development to ensure teaching and learning reflects best practice. We work in collaboration with other Adelaide Hills schools and DfE to increase our skills in teaching these fundamental areas of learning.

We have a rigorous system for tracking individual student learning. This allows intervention for students who need additional support in Literacy and Numeracy.
