As a Queensland State School we have access to regional resources to assist classroom teachers to support students to access and participate in education.
Guidance officers are specialist teachers who deliver a broad range of services to school community members. They contribute to the development of a comprehensive student support and wellbeing program that is responsive to the needs of the school community.
Social Workers address challenges experienced by students across a range of mental health and wellbeing concerns and apply evidence-based interventions through personal and family counselling, therapeutic support and group work. Using a strengths-based approach, they work to maximise students' engagement with education. Social workers also facilitate referrals to other allied health professionals and services and assist students and families in accessing this support.
Occupational therapists—support students with disability to do the things they want or need to do at school; such as learning, using objects and technology, interacting with others and looking after themselves.
Speech-language pathologists—for students with speech, language and communication needs or eating and drinking difficulties, who need support to learn and participate at school.
Physiotherapists—support students with disability with posture, movement, physical activity and wellbeing at school.
State school registered nurses—work with schools to ensure that staff have the confidence and capability to support the health and safety of students with health support needs at school.
