Inclusion Support
The Inclusion Support Department at MacKillop College is overseen by Mrs Emma Cooper and Mrs Binu Roy, who organise the daily activities of Inclusion Support Assistants (ISAs).
Students who require significant educational adjustments in order to access the curriculum and achieve success are provided with an Education Adjustment Plan. They, along with key stakeholders in their education, are involved in the process of developing this Education Adjustment Plan, which allows teachers to cater to those students’ needs.
The Inclusion Support Department at MacKillop Catholic College comprises of a student lunch seating area, an engine room (sensory comfort cool-down space for one student at a time), a staff area, the Inclusion Support Coordinator offices, and a bathroom with a shower. The purpose of this facility is to provide students with special needs a safe place to connect with staff and peers as well as to receive assessment support on occasion. Families enrolling at MacKillop Catholic College can expect a guided transition experience for students with disabilities as outlined in the transition booklet below.
Staff at MacKillop maintain a passion for creating a safe, supportive and stimulating environment for students with disabilities and those who require significant educational adjustments in the mainstream classroom environment. Inclusion Support staff also offer students support in social skills training, special provisions for national diagnostic testing, life skills, and support to transition from school to the workforce.
