Inclusion At Auburn High School – We Need Your Feedback!
At Auburn High School, our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment remains steadfast and therefore, we are pleased to inform you about the implementation of the Disability Inclusion model, a significant initiative by the Department of Education Victoria aimed at strengthening support for students with disabilities across all government schools by 2025.
What is the Disability Inclusion model?
The Disability Inclusion model introduces a new approach to supporting students with disabilities, focusing on:
- A Tiered Funding Model: This model provides additional resources to schools, enabling them to deliver tailored support based on individual student needs. It comprises three tiers:
- Tier 1: Core student learning funding for all students.
- Tier 2: School-level funding to enhance inclusive practices.
- Tier 3: Student-level funding for individualized support informed by the Disability Inclusion Profile .
The Disability Inclusion Profile: A strengths-based process that helps identify a student’s abilities and the adjustments required to support their learning. This collaborative approach involves families, educators, and specialists working together to develop a comprehensive understanding of the student’s needs .
Professional Learning and Support: Ongoing training and resources for school staff to build their capacity in delivering inclusive education, ensuring that all students receive the support they need to succeed .
