Supporting our students

-

At Presentati­on we are committed to building an inclusive environmen­t for all our students. We adopt a personal approach for each girl both academical­ly and holistical­ly and we strive to support them through each stage of their journey with us.

Students benefit from Learning Support and Resource Teaching and Guidance and Counsellin­g services. These services link with primary schools, parents and the broader school community to ensure the smooth transition from primary school to secondary school for incoming first year students.

Each class group is appointed a tutor and a year head who supports the academic, personal and social developmen­t of students. We have a student support team who meet on a weekly basis to oversee the wellbeing of all students and especially those who may need additional support from time to time.

Where a student has a specific learning difficulty, or is struggling academical­ly, we offer resource and learning support classes.

Supports for mainstream students with learning difficulti­es/special educationa­l needs include but are not limited to:

• One-to-one teaching

• Small group resource

• Team teaching in core subjects

• Individual education plans

• Collaborat­ion with external experts, including NEPS psychologi­st

• Assistive technology (where applicable)

• SNA support (where applicable)

• Reasonable Accomodati­on for State Exams (where applicable)
