Additional learning support
At our school, we are committed to ensuring every student is ready to learn and able to participate fully in school life. We support students with disability and additional learning needs in an inclusive environment where everyone is valued.
A formal diagnosis is not required for students to receive support in a mainstream classroom, and assistance can begin at any stage of their schooling.
We provide a range of supports to help students engage in learning and achieve their best, including:
- Small Group Tuition - literacy and numeracy tuition for students who need additional support
- Learning Hub - assessment support for students with individualised plans
- Wellbeing Hub - supports students to reset and be ready for learning.
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.
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.
Our additional learning supports include:
Teachers and support staff work collaboratively with families and students to develop individual support plans and appropriate learning adjustments.
Tailored programs are provided to support high potential and gifted students, ensuring their advanced learning needs are challenged and extended.
-
Small-group tutoring is implemented to deliver targeted support in literacy and numeracy.
-
Regular check-ins are conducted to review student progress and update support strategies when needed.
Our classrooms are designed to support all learners. Changes and resources include:
- Accessible classrooms that accommodate diverse needs.
- Assistive technology to help students engage with learning effectively.
- Instructional resources tailored to different learning styles.
- Additional guidance or adapted lessons, including simplified content or alternative focus, to ensure every student can participate and succeed.
To ensure all students can demonstrate their learning, we provide assessment adjustments such as:
- Extra time to complete tasks and assessments.
- Simplified or clarified language to make instructions easier to understand.
- Scheduled breaks during tasks to support focus and wellbeing.
- Alternative ways to complete tasks, such as oral presentations instead of written work, to suit different learning needs.
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.
