High Challenge, High Support Programs for EAL/D Students, created by Jennifer Hammond and Maya Cranitch, unpacks the importance of providing high challenge programs for EAL/D students in mainstream programs, while also providing high levels of support in response to students’ specific needs. It provides insights into classrooms that are characterised by high challenge and high support and what such programs look like in practice.

Learning outcomes:

  • Identify how programs that are characterised by high challenge and high expectations provide all students with access to a full curriculum
  • Plan and implement well-structured learning and teaching programs or lesson sequences that engage students and promote learning
  • Identify what high support means, implement strategies that offer high support for EAL/D students in mainstream classes and design programs that are characterised by high support
  • Develop teaching activities that incorporate differentiated strategies to meet the specific learning needs of students across the full range of abilities
