Supporting teachers - you bet!

The restructure of July 2004 placed teachers at the centre of Western Institute's operations. New positions were established in each faculty with the specific aim of providing educational leadership, guidance and mentoring to teachers. Seven Head Teachers were appointed to these educational leader positions. Each faculty has a Faculty Business Coordinator and Administrator for supporting teachers involved in commercial activities and a designated faculty Finance Officer. Annual faculty forums are the foundation of professional development for teachers and support staff. Librarians have developed successful strategies to support teachers with their information needs. Twelve months on, the model is successfully embedded into everyday practice.
