ESL for ILSS is a program funded by the federal government, but managed at a territory or state level. Schools must apply to be a part of the program. Funding is based on a per capita calendar year Program commenced in 1998. www.deet.nt.gov.au DEPARTMENT OF EMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION AND TRAINING

  10. Strategic Directions – The Wish List! • To integrate ILSS targets into DEET Operational Plans – eg the importance of competence in oral English for ESL Phase 1 Indigenous students (approximately Level 3 ESL Speaking) • To have ILSS more fully student focused – not tied to a calendar year, but until the students move in ESL Phase 2 • Equity of support – more support / more funds for the more needy students, eg those from the most remote locations with the least access to Standard Australian English • More ILSS Education Officers (1 for each Group School – replacing roving ILSS teachers, Central Australia, Darwin, Arnhem, Rivers) to better support Phase 1 Learners across the NT. • Provide professional development for Indigenous staff in communities to understand the program so they can support ILSS teachers as they arrive and during the program - to provide continuity. • Review and revise the best way to provide Professional Learning Opportunities to support improved student outcomes
