Research on Transient Students
Addressing the needs of transient students
This Teaching and Learning Initiative (TRLI) project emerged out of a request from the principals and teachers in a small Area School. Student transience was observed at the school to complicate the learning and social experiences of some students.
This recently completed project provided an opportunity for the participating school to identify, discuss and research the particular effects, or disruptions, of transience within their own school, and to do this in a learning community that focussed on existing research and an action research project.
