Learning Support Services

Philosophy

The Learning Support Services department is dedicated to creating a welcoming learning environment that fosters academic success and addresses barriers to learning. This department strives to work together with teachers, families and others in our community to foster the healthy development of all of our students.

Services

Learning support is provided by specialist teachers across the school for students with mild learning difficulties to meet individual needs in accessing the curriculum. A variety of service delivery models may be used, including monitoring, in-class support, and individual or small group instruction in a separate setting. Services may include remedial and compensatory instruction, skill development, re-teaching and content support. The learning support teacher collaborates with the classroom teacher in making appropriate accommodations and modifications as detailed in the student's Learning Support Plan.
