At Sacred Heart, we recognise and celebrate the uniqueness and individuality of all students and their families. Guided by Church teaching and legislative requirements, we are committed to fostering a culture of compassion, faith, justice, and inclusion.
Our staff respond to the educational needs of every student, valuing diversity, recognising rights, and providing equitable access to ensure all learners can achieve their potential within a supportive Christian community. The school collaborates with families and community members to create individual pathways and options that help students achieve their goals.
The Enrolment Application and Support Procedures for Students Requiring Significant Educational Adjustments help our school understand the learning needs of students with disabilities or additional learning requirements. This process establishes a support network, including parents, teachers, school leaders, and student services representatives, who share responsibility for achieving successful outcomes for each student.
Our Lady of the Sacred Heart School also has access to Catholic Education’s specialists, including advisory teachers, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, occupational therapists, learning support teachers, student counsellors, and Indigenous education officers, and can collaborate with external agencies to further support individual student needs. These specialists visit each term, and the school also draws on local services to provide additional expertise.
