Curriculum Programme · Learning activities in which students investigate issues and solve problems of interest to them · A balanced curriculum which emphasises discovery and exploration and encourages higher order thinking as keys to successful learning · Opportunities to see the relevance of learning by applying it in a practical way to solve real problems · Learning activities and experiences (both in and outside school) which enable all students to succeed regardless of previous achievement Schemes that are not so prescriptive that they stifle creativity and the opportunity to capture the teachable moment Teachers adapt the programme to ensure the curriculum focus for each student is on personal development as well as on academic achievement. We focus on educating the whole child: emotionally, intellectually, socially and personally. Students are challenged with opportunities to participate in a range of academic, cultural, sporting and technology programmes. Mount Maunganui Intermediate School is a public or state school. It offers programmes in all areas of the New Zealand Curriculum. Details of the curriculum can be found on the Ministry of Education’s website http://www.minedu.govt.nz Mount Maunganui Intermediate School adds a new range of learning opportunities to meet the broadening interest and development requirements of the pre-adolescent.

Although the homeroom teacher teaches most of the subjects, specialist teachers deliver the Arts and Technology programme. We also regroup according to ability for Mathematics. Students are placed in a Mathematics group with other students who are working at the same level. This means that they will never feel bad about not being able to keep up with those that find Maths easy and they will never be frustrated waiting for those who find Maths difficult. It is likely that the student will have a different teacher for Maths but he/she will always have others from his/her class in this Maths group. |
