Class Organisation
Where there are two or more classes in a group, the schools’ policy is to organize the children to achieve as close a balance as possible, considering the following factors: language experience, nationality, ability and gender.
Parents can express their preference though do not have the option to make the final decision regarding their child’s class group or teacher. In all issues of child placement, the Principal’s decision is final.
Student Support Regulations
Our school has the Student Wellbeing Services. The acceptance of students with highlighted learning needs will be defined by the counsellor and the coordinator together. For further information refer to our Student Wellbeing Services.
