Student Learning Centre

The Student Learning Centre provides one-on-one tutoring via high-quality intervention learning programs for students that are struggling in literacy or maths as well as those who have been diagnosed with dyslexia and/or other specific learning disabilities. The teaching program is delivered by Special Educational Teachers working on a sessional basis.

Teachers employed at the Student Learning Centre:

• have special education qualifications
• are experienced in teaching students with dyslexia and other learning disabilities/difficulties
• are able to apply on-going assessment and reporting practices
• hold current registration with the Victorian Institute of Teaching
• maintain a high level of professional development

The program also includes working in partnership with parents and the school. It includes regular parent/teacher interviews and half-yearly written reports, so there is constant feedback on progress.

For students, the key intervention features of programs are:

• assessment and analysis of literacy and numeracy problems using a range of formal and informal measures
• structured, sequenced sessions and opportunities for repetition and practice of skills, including utilising assistive technologies such as software programs
• student engagement in the acquisition of literacy and numeracy through the appropriate selection of teaching strategies and resource materials
