Support Plan

The Human Skills Teacher that develops and coordinates the student’s support plan will meet with the student and conduct a holistic assessment to identify what barriers exist to the student achieving their full potential while at Dev Academy.

The support plan should be developed collaboratively with the student. The plan should augment and reinforce the student’s career or training pathway.

The focus of the plan is not for the Human Skills teacher to provide counselling to the student. Where possible the Human Skills teacher should refer to external agencies.

The Human Skills teacher will then meet with the student and the student’s lead teacher fortnightly to review progress. The Human Skills teacher will give regular feedback to the CEO about the student’s progress.

Confidentiality

The team member charged with developing and coordinating the student’s support plan will keep all information learnt during the development of the support plan and the review of the plan confidential unless they believe the student:

• Is in danger of harming themselves
• Is in danger of harming someone else
• Is supplying drugs to other students
