The Student Services Symposium is designed for middle leaders and teachers wanting to learn more/expand their knowledge in one or all of our focus areas.

Courses

Leading Inclusive Education: A whole-school approach  
Explore the principles of inclusive education within a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) framework, enabling schools to identify and address diverse student needs through tiered interventions and universally designed learning experiences.

Supporting School Attendance and Students Engaging in School Refusal Behaviour
Create a culture that values and encourages attendance, identifying students with school attendance problems and responding to students presenting with school refusal behaviours.

School Risk Assessments: Mental Health 
 Develop an understanding of processes and procedures for responding to risk of harm related to student self-harm, suicidality or aggression.

Supporting Students with Challenging Behaviour 
Explore the functions of complex behaviours and evidence-informed approaches to support the student and create a more inclusive and productive learning environment for all students within a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS).
