Learning Diversity

Dear Families,

If you feel that your child may need extra support or has a Disability that the school is not aware of, please contact the office and ask to speak to Sally Thomas or email me sthomas@saseaford.catholic.edu.au

PSG Meetings – in progress

Thank you to all the families who took the time to meet with the team to discuss your child’s progress and goals for this term.

For those families who discussed their child’s goals during the family conferences and PSG meetings, your child’s PLP and meeting notes will be sent via Adobe Acrobat for you to review, sign and return.

We appreciate your time, support and partnership in helping your child achieve their goals.

Nationally Consistent Collection of Data (NCCD)

The Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) process has now reached an important milestone for 2026.

The NCCD allocation for 2027 has been completed, with student adjustments carefully assessed and students placed according to their individual learning and support needs. This process helps ensure that students receive appropriate adjustments to support their participation, learning and engagement at school.

We now enter the reflection and review phase, where the school will consider the processes undertaken throughout 2026. This reflection provides an opportunity for us to evaluate what worked well, identify areas for improvement, and consider how we can continue to strengthen our practices and support for students in 2027.

We thank our staff, students and families for their ongoing partnership and contribution throughout this process. Working together ensures that we continue to provide an inclusive learning environment where every student can thrive.

Allied Health Professionals in School

Thank you to the parents who have followed the requirements to have Allied Health Professionals in to school. If you have not emailed Sally Thomas regarding  your intention to have Allied Health Professionals in school please do so as soon as possible.

Allied Health Professionals may continue to attend school to provide sessions. Professionals must be registered with SAMS for school visits, and new school approval forms will be issued to support Allied Health attendance.

Parents/carers are required to email the Learning Diversity Leader, Sally Thomas, to request Allied Health visits, outlining the days of the week and times required. Once this request has been received, the necessary documentation will be prepared and sent to parents for completion.
