In this article, AERO CEO Dr Jenny Donovan discusses how AERO is supporting teachers and educators to maximise student learning in their classrooms using AERO's evidence-based classroom management resources.

This commissioned report provides an overview of the evidence underpinning a knowledge-rich curriculum and outlines the key design features and enablers to effectively enact a knowledge-rich curriculum in schools.

AERO’s submission identifies 3 evidence-based teaching practices that should form the core content basis of the ACT’s support to schools. It recommends the ACT Education Directorate work with schools to implement these practices and outlines principles and support mechanisms for this.

This practice guide will help teachers understand the ways rules and routines support learning and how to equip students with the skills to participate in routines that support their learning.

This handbook contains a collection of AERO's foundational classroom management practices.
