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

The school’s learning and support team plays a key role in ensuring we meet the specific needs of students with additional learning and support needs, including disability.

The team:

• supports teachers in identifying and responding to the additional learning needs of students
• facilitates and coordinates a whole-school approach to improving the learning outcomes of every student
• coordinates planning processes and resourcing for students with additional learning and support needs
• designs and implements the support required to build teacher capacity so that all students access quality learning
• develops collaborative partnerships with the school, parents and carers as well as other professionals and the wider school community

For more information on programs and services to help students with additional learning and support needs, visit Disability, learning and 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.
