Today I got the opportunity to attend the Hospitality Cluster Meeting held at Burnside High School. I have attached below the Agenda for the day
The morning session consisted of going through requirements for moderation and Consent to Assess. It was interesting to see the direction that Service IQ are heading and the introduction of E-Learning into their product options. Considering the direction that most schools are going it is good to see this option is becoming more accessible. However i feel there are still a number of issues that need to be looked at like access to students work.
The ability to talk to other staff especially as I am going through the rebuild was of huge benefit as it allowed me to get the views of other from around the south island and made me feel more confident about the decisions that i have made and the things that i am fighting for in my department.
In the afternoon we had a chef come in and demonstrate the way in which you can combine three units eg Grilling, Frying and Salad or boiling while using the observation sheet. I still find the observation sheet tricky to use and a bit cumbersome, especially during a practical lesson with over 24 students.
