Supporting our students

All NSW public school students have a right to an inclusive learning environment and to feel happy and safe at school.

Learning support

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.
