Learning Support Program
Students who may benefit from a Learning Support program are identified through systematic assessment of core skills and in consultation with classroom teachers. The placement of students in Learning Support programs is reviewed regularly to ensure that students will exit support programs and return to the regular classroom programs as soon as they are ready to do so. We strive to empower our students by facilitating their belief and understanding that they can take control and responsibility for their own academic learning outcomes. By their own efforts they can make a difference.
Additional academic learning support is provided for students in a range of ways, including:
- Implementation of classroom strategies and modification of classroom work tasks to meet the needs of individual students. This is achieved through consultation and collaboration between the Learning Support teacher and the classroom teacher.
- Parent partnerships to provide homework support, including extra daily skills practice that many students with additional academic learning needs require.
- Teacher aide support within the classroom.
- One-to-one and small group withdrawal support programmes.
