Overview:

The Liaison teacher’s role is crucial in assisting students in their preparation for the Alpine School and maximizing the transfer of learning from the Alpine school to the home community. They have the responsibility of

• assisting students in their task of identifying and designing a community learning project,
• preparing them to attend The Alpine School,
• supporting them during their time away,
• spending time with them at The Alpine School, and
• assisting them in re-integration and the promotion and transfer of their experience.
