About Northgate State School

Class Groupings and Sizes 2009

Current - July 29 2009

Northgate State School runs an innovative program for Year 5,6,7 students. Students are assigned to home classes (i.e. 5/6/7D) for roll class and specific lessons on grammar, spelling and number operations. For Mathematics students return to straight grade level classes. For English, students are streamed into ability groups. In designing classes this way we have greater flexibility to form and change specific classes depending on the needs of students thus enhancing our vision to ensure every child is given every opportunity to achieve to their full potential.
