Questions from school leaders
What is WAO Podium, and which grades is it for?
WAO Podium is a project-based skill development programme for Grades 3-8. Through guided projects such as stories, podcasts, vlogs, broadcasts and talks, students practise communication, collaboration and creative thinking—turning their ideas into work they can present and share.
How does WAO fit into our school’s timetable?
We work with your school to agree on participating grades, project choices and a schedule that fits your calendar. The programme plan sets out the sessions, school coordination and support required, giving your team a clear picture before delivery begins.
How does WAO involve children with different confidence levels?
Children can begin with a short response, a story idea or a contribution to a group project. Interest and readiness guide the starting point, while facilitation, practice and feedback help them take the next step. Grade level shapes the depth of the challenge.
What support does WAO provide, and what does the school manage?
WAO’s model brings together facilitation, project resources, practice, feedback and reflection. The school helps coordinate student participation, scheduling and suitable spaces. The exact delivery format and responsibilities are agreed together before the programme begins.
How does WAO make student growth visible?
Selected drafts, feedback, finished work and reflections help show how a student’s ideas and skills develop. Portfolios bring these learning records together, while showcases give students opportunities to present their creations. This helps schools and parents recognise both the outcome and the effort behind it.
