The Inclusive Education Team comprises our "Support Teachers Inclusive Education" (ST:IE). Our ST:IEs, in collaboration with parents, class teachers, members of the school community, and other professionals within Catholic Education and the wider community, strive to ensure a continuum of educational options that emphasise inclusion and cooperation.
The STIE supports the class teachers in the following ways:
- Assessing students' needs,
- Determining strengths, weaknesses and particular learning styles,
- Adapting and changing curricula to more adequately meet the needs of students with special education needs,
- Providing specialised equipment, instructional techniques and materials as required,
- Preparing individualised materials (social stories, visual timetables, reward systems and communication boards) and
- Team teaching, teaching individuals and/or small groups.
