Language Literacy and Numeracy (LLN)
The purpose of this project has been to lay the foundations for sustained improvement in Indigenous adult English LLN policy and programs in the NT.
We are working on three Strategic Priority Projects (SPPs) during 2016 in response to needs that have been identified through community engagement work in 2015. The projects are one way of sharing WCE findings and putting them to good use to support positive system change and increased understanding among key stakeholders.

This project will look deeply at factors which help and hold back appropriate LLN support for remote Indigenous students in the NT. We will develop priorities focused on strategies, actions and systems improvements.
The aim of this project is to get more people moving along the educational pathway between VET) and Higher Education.We will produce and share information to increase understanding of study and career pathways within communities. We aim also to get a better understanding of student and staff experiences and opinions relating to VET to HE pathways.
This project aims to increase understanding of the factors that help and hold back access and outcomes for Indigenous learners in Higher Education. We will interview Indigenous graduates and under-graduates, staff (Indigenous and non-Indigenous) and collect stories of success. With their permission we will share Indigenous views, opinions and experience. We will also suggest levers for positive change within Higher Education in the NT. We will draw on information from the past and from the present.
I joined the team in April 2016, just in time for the team meeting at Tennant Creek, where it was realised that the team needed someone to analyse the data that was being generated across the different communities.
Being a part of the WCE Initiative has been a wonderful experience and I have learnt so much from being a part of this team with such diverse backgrounds that supported each other throughout the initiative.
