The overarching accountability of Teaching and Learning is shaping our students' by honing their skills and attributes as human beings, their attitude to learning, their relationship to the school community, country and the globe.

Preparing students for an unknown tomorrow they must possess dynamic skills that will see them through regardless of the challenges of their circumstance. They must be armed with skill sets that include adaptability, empathy, resilience, accountability, creativity, a collaborative mindset, design process thinking and problem solving,  The focus is on fostering a ‘can do’ operative, that is unafraid to take risks and will take failure as a teacher and not a reason to stop.

Creating learners who shape the future is an awesome responsibility and a  privilege, and one which the department comes to humbly and positively. Teaching and Learning is directly responsible for the curriculum design and delivery of the K-12 knowledge base to accomplish these outcomes.

AISK campus is built on a comprehensive Information Technology infrastructure to support an IT integrated curriculum. The mandate is to deliver future-ready students with IT skills ready to enter the workplace or go further via university placement for training in working in the Technology Industry. For this, it requires a skilled and trained faculty that can comfortably use applications to integrate digital content in lesson delivery and for those teachers that teach programming language to have a very high level of proficiency.
