Moreton Bay College has a commitment to personalised learning and recognises that all students are individuals in terms of their intellectual and physical abilities and their social and emotional needs. The Learning Enhancement team consists of specialised staff who work in a consultative and collaborative capacity with class teachers, to assist in differentiating the curriculum to meet the learning needs of all students.
The Learning Support team works closely with classroom teachers to cater for students who have a range of learning needs. The girls work either individually, as a part of a small group or within the classroom environment to develop confidence and strategies to assist their learning. The College also engages the services of specialised support staff such as Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, Vision and Hearing Specialists and Educational Psychologists to assist with early intervention measures and ongoing individualised programming. This combined effort helps to support students to work towards celebrating successes and reaching their full potential.
The Academic Enrichment Programme varies to meet the developmental needs of all students. Many extension and enrichment opportunities are embedded within and across the different curriculum areas.
At Moreton Bay College we use a variety of screening measures to identify students who display potential giftedness and/or a high aptitude in domain specific areas. The College’s policy for supporting gifted and talented students is based upon Gagne’s Comprehensive Model of Talent Development (CMTD). Specialist staff work in close collaboration with classroom teachers to ensure that the academic programme for gifted students is inclusive of strategies to develop identified environmental and intrapersonal catalysts.
The Moreton Bay College Performance Programme recognises and supports students who are achieving at an elite level in Sport and/or the Performing Arts to balance their academic studies and performance goals. Eligible students need to meet a strict criteria, which includes performing at an elite level and being involved in numerous hours of training/rehearsal. A Performance Programme Committee decides eligibility for the programme and considerations for any appropriate modifications to the academic programme. The committee also monitors the student’s academic progress and makes adjustments in negotiation with the family, as appropriate.
Performance Programme participants submit review documentation at the end of each year to determine eligibility for the subsequent year. Each application is assessed individually.
