What is an Intensive English Centre?
The Intensive English Centre (IEC) at Marrickville High School is a specialist unit that caters for newly arrived high school age migrants. There are 14 IECs located across Sydney and Wollongong.
Students attending the IEC come from many countries, including Brazil, China, Greece, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, Sierra Leone, South Korea, Sudan, Thailand and Vietnam. They attend the IEC for 3 to 5 terms to learn the English language in preparation for enrolment at high school.
Classes
In the IEC there are 4 levels of classes: Level 1 - Beginner, Level 2 - Post-Beginner, Level 3 - Intermediate and Level 4 - High School Preparation. Each class has a maximum of 18 students. In Level 3 and 4 students are divided into junior and senior classes so that, in addition to learning English, they can study material suitable for their age group at high school and use authentic texts.
Curriculum
Students learn English language through a variety of subjects from a range of Key Learning Areas, inlcuding Computing Studies, Graphic Communication, English, HSIE, Maths, Music, Numeracy, PD/Health/PE, Science and Visual Art.
In addition to teaching English language, the IEC plays an important role in the orientation and settlement of new migrant students and their families. Bilingual support is available through Teachers Aides (Ethnic) who work in the IEC.
Uniform
The IEC uniform is similar to the high school uniform and the students share facilities, including playground space, library, computers and canteen. IEC students also participate in key events including the swimming and athletics carnivals, Multicultural Day and special assemblies for occasions such as ANZAC Day.
