ClevelandStreetIntensiveEnglishHighSchool介绍

　　Cleveland Street Intensive English High School (CSIEHS) is a new type of school within the NSW Department of Education and Training’s system of secondary schools and was created within the revitalization of inner city schools strategy, June 2001.

　　Our students

　　Students attending the school can come from as many as 100 different countries, bringing with them a great diversity of languages, customs and beliefs. Our students are all newly-arrived, non-English speaking background students of high school age. They spend approximately three to twelve months at the school. When they are ready to leave our school most students transfer to other government high schools in order to complete their studies in the school certificate or higher school certificate. Some students will choose to begin other courses of study at other institutions, such as Technical and Further Education (TAFE), and some may go directly to work.

　　Our staff

　　The staff consists of a principal, deputy principal, head teachers, classroom teachers, specialist migrant counsellors, school assistant support staff (administration and bi-lingual) and general assistant. All teachers at this school are trained in at least two methodologies, English as a Second Language and other subject areas. Many of the teachers are also bi-lingual.
