Students at Educational Risks
West Morley Primary School is an inclusive school which has a commitment to ensuring all children are provided with a holistic, balanced curriculum that encourages all children to be successful and confident learners. All students however have the potential to be at educational risk at some point. Clear processes are in place to ensure early identification and ongoing support is provided for all children that may experience being at educational risk.
Parents will be informed by the class teacher if a child is identified as being at educational risk. Parents/guardians will be provided with ongoing, accurate and relevant information regarding their child’s learning.
Our school has a Learning Support Coordinator who works with teachers, parents and support agencies to implement effective teaching and learning programs for students with specific learning difficulties and disabilities.
School Psychologist
West Morley Primary School has the services of a school psychologist and is available to support students achieve academic success, psychological health and social and emotional well-being. The school psychologist’s role is diverse and can include counselling, consultation, assessment, referral processes, and the evaluation and management of critical incidents.
All school psychology referrals must be made by the classroom teachers and are managed by the Learning Support Coordinator. Parental/carer consent is required prior to the school psychologist’s engagement.
School Chaplain
West Morley Primary School has been fortunate to access funding from the State Government to assist with the provision of a School Chaplain.
The Chaplain provides non-faith-based assistance for students and families requiring social or emotional support.
It is voluntary for students to participate in the Chaplain program, and you may withdraw your child from this service at any time.
Please contact the school office should you wish to chat with our School Chaplain, request your child meets with the Chaplain or withdraw your child from our school chaplain program.
