DAT Newsletter: Amplifying Student Voices for an Inclusive Greensborough College
Exciting news! Our Disability Education Team (DET) has evolved into the Disability Advocacy Team (DAT)! This name change reflects our renewed focus on empowering students and amplifying their voices in shaping an inclusive school environment. This year, we're committed to putting student perspectives at the heart of everything we do.
Student-Led Advocacy Takes Centre Stage!
In 2024, Greensborough College launched its first "For Students, By Students" disability advocacy group, marking an important step towards a more inclusive school environment. This group, driven by passionate students, is dedicated to fostering a school culture where all students feel supported and empowered to thrive. This initiative will be further strengthened through collaboration with the Student Representative Council (SRC), working together to achieve even greater outcomes.
What Does the Student Advocacy Group Do?
This dynamic group is taking action through a range of impactful initiatives and events, including:
