Wellbeing

At Galilee, our teachers differentiate and personalise the curriculum each day, catering for the individual needs of each child within their classroom. Our teachers identify and target each students’ interests and abilities across all learning areas, providing engaging and enriching experiences. Our students are provided extension and or support based on their individual learning needs.   

 

Our Learning Diversity Leaders work in partnership with our classroom teachers to develop Personal Learning Plans (PLP’s) for students who

require additional learning support. Personalised Learning Plans are designed to support the academic, social and emotional needs of our children. Our team of Learning Support Officers (LSO’s) also provide additional support to our teachers and students within the classroom setting.
