The transition from primary to secondary school is a vital time. We need to establish our Year 7s as effective learners and members of our school community. Too often students are plunged into a new structure and with library, ICT and information skills taught in isolation. Victoria’s recently reformed curriculum, The Victorian Essential Learnings [VELS], promotes an integrated curriculum. The school library has taken the initiative to work collaboratively with teachers and specialist staff to develop, implement and evaluate the Year 7 Learning Induction Program, LIP.This paper will report on the rationale, collaborative development, implementation and evaluation [student and teacher] of the Year 7 Learning Induction Program at Sunbury College.
