Abstract

This topical case study reports on work conducted with Our Lady of Visitation, a Catholic primary school in Adelaide, South Australia. Principal Frank DeTullio; Leader of Learning, Tina Ida; Inclusive Education expert, Sandra Naismith; and lead educators in the school supported 22 teaching staff working with 360 students to improve learning outcomes aligned with the Australian Curriculum for F-6. The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) worked collaboratively with the school to support this intervention. This report briefly documents how the school achieved improvements in students’ mathematics learning by using assessment data to inform teaching and learning.
