Enhancement

At Doveton College we acknowledge that, no matter how good the classroom instruction, some students will require extra support to reach expected academic standards. We are proud to have an enhancement team that meets the needs of these students. We offer intervention in areas of: EAL (English as an Additional Language), Literacy and Numeracy. Our Literacy intervention targets comprehension, and is based on Fountas and Pinnell’s Levelled Literacy Intervention (LLI). The program involves small groups of students working on authentic reading material with a teacher or support person. Numeracy Intervention at the College consists of two programs, EMU (Enhancing Mathematical Understanding) and GRIN (Getting Ready In Number). The intervention teachers work closely with the classroom teachers to ensure that together we can provide the best education for every student.
