Learning Support

The Secondary EXPO was a wonderful opportunity to connect with parents and students. It was fantastic to see some of them gain a greater understanding of different conditions as they engaged with simulations of what it may be like to have autism, ADHD or dyslexia. The fiddle toys were popular with many students, and some even recognised that it would be helpful for their learning! Our aim is to develop a self-awareness in students of how they learn best and the resources they need to flourish. Teaching, enabling and equipping students to advocate for themselves is vital for their own well-being and key to developing independence.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Learning Support teachers. We are always willing to chat about how we can best support your child to reach their potential.
