The school has an enthusiastic staff who are committed to quality teaching and learning. Tahmoor Public School has a strong focus on Literacy, Numeracy and embedding technology into classroom practice. Tahmoor Public School has been implementing the Language, Learning and Literacy (L3) program and TEN (Targeting Early Numeracy) across all K-2 classes. TOWN (Taking Off With Numeracy) and FoR (Focus on Reading) strategies are being implemented across all 3-6 classes.
Data collection in Literacy and Numeracy is regularly conducted across the school and directly helps inform future teaching and learning sequences. The embedding of STEM across the school K-6 has transformed our students into engaged, inquiring learners.
