• Theadvantageofsplitsitesisthatitallowsustoprovidepurposefulandcontextualeducationalsettingsalignedtotheneedsofthedifferentagegroups.Whileourtransitpoint(currentlyYear5to6)islargelyfacilitiesdriven(i.e.,spaceavailableattheSeniorcampusnottheJuniorCampus),wehavemadethetransitionitselfafocus,activelytailoringprogramsinYear6atthesestudents’readinessfornewandindependentlearningexperiences.Ourtransitingstudent’sfeedbackispowerfullypositiveaboutthechangeintheirmodeoflearningandtypicallymostparentsagree.InadditionwiththeforthcomingchangeforYear7’sgoingtohighschoolin2015,ourmodeofcateringfortheirneedsisnowofsystemicinterestaswearequitedifferentinourapproachtothetypicalYear7inaprimaryschoolorYear8inastandardhighschool.
• Thedisadvantageofsplitsitesliesmainlyintheareaofresourcing,giventhereislittlerecognitiongivenbytheresourcingbureaucracytothe“differential”needs,particularlyintheareaofteachingresources,e.g.,splittingtheprimaryatYear5/6requiresadifferentsetofclassconstructionstypicallywithonemoreclassthanifallthestudentsweretogether.Theresourcingdirectorate’sresponse,whilerecognizingtheneedtocreateanadditionalclass,istoallocateanadditionalhalfateacher.InanageofbudgetrestraintandintheabsenceofadifferentialresourcingpolicywhileweawaittherightmomentforthesystemandgovernmenttoreleasetheTeeceReport,thesolutionheremaywellbeforactionattheboardlevelwiththepoliticians.
