Itinerant+Service

=Arahunga Itinerant Service=

The Itinerant Service recieves operation funding from the Ministry of Education. The Itinerant Service has been set up to support students identified under the Ongoing Reviewable Resourcing Scheme (ORRS) so that they can recieve additional focused teaching. All ORRS students receive a point one or a point two teaching component as part of their resourcing package.

Class teachers in schools that have signed up for the Itinerant Service are supported and assisted with planning learning for an individual student. The student has a personalised learning program that is taught by the Class Teacher assisted by Teachers Aides. To sign up the local school transfers the point one or two teaching component of the student's ORRS resource package to Arahunga who in return supplies the school with support from an experienced speciallist teacher.

An advantage for students in this system is that the Itinerant service supports them even if they move schools. This allows for smoother transitions.
