Learning Support

Springbank Secondary College supports student barriers to learning with intervention and support that is provided in negotiation with students, parents and teachers. Interventions range from in class differentiation and modification, whole year level fluid intervention, small group targeted intervention and 1:1 support for literacy, numeracy and social and emotional learning needs.

Literacy and Numeracy Support

Literacy and Numeracy testing occurs in years 7-10 through a range of tools including PAT, NAPLAN and Dibels assessments. The data obtained from these tools is used to identify individual student strengths and areas for development to enable staff to target teaching and learning to student developmental levels.

Students eligible for One Plan receive specific support as negotiated with parents, teachers and students. In-class support is provided across the curriculum depending on student needs.

English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EALD)

Students eligible for EALD support receive in class support as determined by their literacy levels. Staff are trained to support these students within mainstream classes.
