Learning and support teachers

Stephanie Kaul and Eunice Hsu

Our learning and support teachers coordinate adjustments for learning and disability provisions for all students who need support to access their education on the same basis as their peers. This includes identifying learning and support needs through testing, conversations with students, communication with parent/carers and liaising with teachers. Disability provisions are applied to all assessment situations including the Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC), when approved by NESA.

Maru Ngurraba Centre

At Jesmond, each Aboriginal student has the opportunity to develop a Personalised Learning Plan (PLP). Students work with a mentor and members of our Aboriginal Team to set their own learning goals at the start of each year, and have regular check-ins throughout the year.

We have a fantastic team dedicated to Aboriginal Culture and Learning at Jesmond Senior Campus and across the College.
