St Patrick’s Catholic Primary School supports the Inclusive Practices Approach as outlined by the Queensland Catholic Education Commission. Inclusive Practice values the uniqueness and diversity of our children and focuses on being able to provide educational opportunities that may require adjustments and modifications in the school setting.
Identified children are categorised into three areas – EAP (Educational Adjustment Program), ILP (Individual Learning Plan) and Support Plan students. These individualised plans focus on the needs of each child. Identified children are supported in class according to each individualised plan. Support takes place within the classroom and can occur during small group work with the Learning Support teacher and teacher assistant or individually. With justification, some EAP students may be withdrawn according to their EAP goals.
St Patrick’s has an Inclusive Practices Coordinator whose role is to work collaboratively with educators, children, parents and various outside agencies to support the process of providing inclusive practices in our classrooms. Teacher assistants also provide support to children in the provision of inclusive practises. Much of their work involves supporting children who require adjustments in the classroom and assisting with the implementation of various programs as required.
Classroom teachers are the primary educators responsible for the overall learning and development of your child. The Inclusive Practices Coordinator works closely with all teaching staff at Saint Patrick’s Catholic Primary School to ensure that these individualised plans are implemented ensuring the best possible outcomes for your child.
