Learning Support

We understand that all of our students are individuals with their own strengths and weaknesses and, as such, we will always endeavour to tailor the learning experience to their individual needs. 

Students requiring extra learning support are indentified by staff, and the parents of these students are contacted. The progress of these students is carefully monitored by a team of staff, under the guidance of the College’s Special Education Needs Coordinator.
 
For students with learning difficulties, we offer individual learning plans, extra support in the classroom and small group tuition. Teaching assistants work alongside teachers in the classroom, helping students with their learning on an individual or group basis.
