DIFFERENTIATION

The Learning Centre in collaboration with classroom teachers leads the development of strategies for individual students to differentiate content delivery, environmental support, assistive technologies and modified performance standards for assessment.

All Students negotiating support via the Learning Centre need to have their parent/caregivers’ permission via a “Support Letter” that is to be signed and returned to school.
