Our annual priorities and goals are based around a system wide LEAD framework: LEARNING is what we do – We are committed to learning at every level. ENGAGEMENT is essential – We are committed to Catholic Education's mission through relationships with all. ACCOUNTABILITY is not optional – We have personal and collective responsibility for our system's success. DISCIPLESHIP is our calling – We are committed to deepening our relationship with Jesus. |LEARNING Vision for Learning - SEW Model Mercy College’s SEW Model is designed to support effective learning and teaching with the focus on what teachers can do to improve outcomes for students across Style, Environment, and Work. Teachers have embedded the common language and philosophy of the ‘SEW’ Model to ensure all aspects of teaching and learning are considered and reflected upon in order to improve student individual performance. “The SEW Model is designed to support effective learning and teaching, with a focus on what teachers can do to improve outcomes for students across Style, Environment and Work.” Teachers plan lessons with elements of SEW as a focus. All teaching staff choose a lesson to invite staff to come and observe, and all teaching staff choose a lesson to view as well. The lessons focus on an element, or elements, of the SEW Model, which is linked to the AITSL standards. The staff share good practice in an annual showcase of initiatives, strategies and programs as well as exhibiting students work at our K-9 Learning Journeys. Technology The area of technology will be a major focus heading forward. From 2020 we will have a Technology Department led by Mrs Alison Peterson. The subjects included in the department are: Metal work, wood work, digital and design technologies, home economics and textiles. We are also in the capital planning stage in developing a new build for a technologies centre encompassing the Canteen area. Hopefully this build will commence within a few years. As the use of technology is embedded in the curriculum across all learning areas, it is imperative for Mercy College to advance in this area.
