Learning Support & Extension

Learning Support

At St Heliers school, we recognise that sometimes children need extra support with their learning. We have a dedicated team of professionals who work with these children to increase their skills and build their confidence.  Each child who joins our school undertakes an assessment to enable us to discover their current stage in reading, writing and mathematics.  This assessment can also identify when students need additional support in these areas.  Our Learning support team works with these students to help them reach a level where they can fully participate in all the learning opportunities at our school.
