Learning in the ILC

In term 1 teachers conduct IEP meetings in consultation with parents/carer and other relevant stakeholders. At these meetings individualised goals related to student learning and wellbeing are established. These plans are reviewed in term 4 each year.
· Curriculum
All students follow the NESA curriculum and have the option to access either the mainstream curriculum or Life Skills outcomes.
