Inclusive Education

Inclusive Education

Our school value of ‘inclusivity’ provides a strong focus for supporting our students. We acknowledge that all children can learn and have different needs. All students are supported in meeting their academic, social and emotional potential.

Through our Inclusive Education Coordinators and team, there are processes to identify students early and provide intervention through a Multi-Tiered Support System. Small group and individual intervention include literacy and numeracy in primary and secondary using high quality programs of MiniLit, MacqLit, Dr Paul Swan’s Bond Blocks and Sounds Write. Students are carefully tracked through progress monitoring assessments, case management meetings and database monitoring.

Students at educational risk or with special needs, academic and social-emotional, have Individual Education or Curriculum Adjustment Plans set each semester which describe the specific goals and strategies needed. These documented plans are shared with parents, who are invited to provide input as a collaborative home and school partnership.

The school has a strong partnerships with WA Country Health Service with visiting allied health professionals who provide student therapy onsite and local services like Community Mental Health and Headspace.

We cater for our gifted and talented students through school clubs, competitions, interschool challenges.

Staff training and resourcing is centred on ensuring best practice is embedded across the school. Recently, the whole school has received training in neurodiversity and Autism Spectrum Disorder, sensory processing and positive behaviour strategies.

Through social-emotional monitoring tools, interventions also occur for building student wellbeing.

Our Student Wellbeing Officer also provides vital support to staff and students, providing counselling and class-based programs.
