Learning Support

Launceston College is a welcoming and inclusive campus dedicated to supporting every student in reaching their full educational potential. Our Learning Support services are available throughout the campus, featuring spacious and comfortable classrooms, kitchens for practical maths lessons and cooking classes, and relaxing areas equipped with microwaves, toasters, and kettles. We strive to ensure that every student has access to the resources and support they need to thrive academically.

Learning Plans: Teachers work with learners and families to update learning plans during Term 1. All teachers check learning plans for guidance to support students who require adjustments. Families are encourage to make contact with teachers to discuss learning needs at any time.

Learning Support Team: Our learning support team consists of an Advanced Skills Teacher, Assistant Principal, a group of teachers and teacher assistants. We work together to ensure that students requiring adjustments to access and participate are known, safe, well and learning.

Classroom Teachers: Our teachers are committed to helping students set and achieve high-level goals across all subjects and levels. They provide tailored support to enhance skills in reading, writing, spelling, essay writing and mathematics. 

Tutorial Attendance: One of the key elements of our study support, tutorial attendance, is highly valued by our students for its significant contribution to their academic success. This is a chance to consolidate learning and check for understanding. Tutorial timetables are shared early each year. 

Teacher Assistants: In addition to our dedicated teachers, we offer the invaluable support of Teacher Assistants who are available in several classes across the College to provide extra help and guidance.

Students with disabilities are well catered for and valued at Launceston College.
