Additional learning support

At our school, we ensure every student is ready to learn. We support students with disability and additional learning needs so they can take part in all areas of school life. You do not need a formal diagnosis for your child to receive support in a mainstream class. Support can begin at any stage of school.

Support that fits your child's needs

Some students need extra support to feel confident and do their best at school. We work closely with families to make support plans and adjustments that suits each child’s needs.

Additional learning support can include:

teachers and support staff working together with families (and students, if needed)
specialist support for students learning English as an additional language or dialect (EAL/D)

providing tailored programs to help high potential and gifted students with their advanced learning needs

small group tutoring to provide targeted literacy and numeracy support for students
regular check-ins to review and update the planned supports
changes to the classrooms:
- accessible classrooms
- assistive technology
- instructional resources
extra guidance, simpler content or different focus during lessons
assessment adjustments:
- more time
- simpler language
- breaks during tasks
- different ways to complete a task (e.g. oral presentations instead of written tasks).

We know when a student needs help when:

teachers notice changes in learning or behaviour
reviewing assessment results and learning progress
parents and carers raise concerns or ask for support.

Adjustments are planned with parents and carers. They are reviewed regularly and changed when needed. If you think your child may need extra help, contact us.

We believe in building students social-emotional learning through activities along with resilience building via workshops and mindfulness sessions.
