ANNUAL REPORTFiscal Year 2022 – 2023

During the financial year 2022-2023 (1st July 2022 until 30th June 2023), the operation of Saturday classes at Persian Language School WA was smooth and overall quality of the education program has been improved. Particularly the good environment and technology equipment of the Fountain College’s classrooms contributed much to this.

The annual “End of School Year Celebration” of PLSWA held on 11th Dec 2022, and was a great event particularly with certificates of recognitions awarded to teachers and certificates of achievement awarded to students.

4. Parents and Teachers Committee

At this meeting total of Six person (4 of parents and 2 of teachers) are elected as PTC Committee members and a student council with 3 members also formed.
5. Professional Development
Teachers of Persian Language School WA, are highly qualified professionals with years of experience in teaching Persian language. During the past year they have strengthened their knowledge and skills, and increased their competency and effectiveness through participation in a series of workshops provided by Community Languages WA including "Effective Classroom Management Strategies", "Fun, Interesting and Challenging Teaching Activities for Early Learners" and "Ensuring Every Student Learns, Inclusive Teaching Practices and Approaches".
6. Pathways to Improvement Program
During Jun-Sep 2022 few documents covering PIP Standards “6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.7” and in May-June 2023 updated documents for PIP Standards "6.4 and 6.5" created and submitted to CLWA/OMI and confirmed as accepted.
7. Matching PLSWA Materials with VCE Persian Syllabus
A document, matching the PLSWA teaching materials (the books First Step Persian, Mina 1, Mina 2, Mina 3 & Mina 4) with the VCE Persian syllabus has been developed, proving the fact that PLSWA curriculum (particularly the four main books of Mina 1 to Mina 4) covers the content required by the Persian study design (VCE Persian Syllabus Units 1-4) developed by “Collaborative Curriculum and Assessment Framework for Languages (CCAFL)”.
8. Persian Language Tuition for ATAR
Communicating with the “School Curriculum and Standards Authority”, it has been approved that Persian Language School Western Australia (as the main providers of Persian language tuition in WA) could prepare the students for the final examinations and enrol them as non-school candidates when they are in Year 12. This can contribute to their ATAR and would currently also attract the LOTE bonus.
Yours sincerely
