The objective is also to give students an opportunity to explore their interest in vocational training, and it is seen as an alternative way to enhance academic motivation. Participants at the seminar agreed to work on two basic goals: 1) improving student outcomes in literacy and numeracy and 2) improving teachers' classroom practices. This includes four different aspects: select, develop and make support materials available; provide school-based professional training, including classroom management/instructional leadership; ensure availability of time for teacher collaboration, with the principal’s pedagogic guidance, focused on improved instruction; and develop teacher networks to share and work together on improving instruction.
