Student Services

At Radford we believe it is the right of every child to be provided with equal opportunity to reach his/her educational potential. There is a department to cater for individual requirements and is called Student Services. The Head of Student Services is Mrs Sally Godtschalk email.

Curriculum support is provided for students with specific learning difficulties, a disability or special needs that affect their learning. Some students may need special provisions for examinations and assessments. Student Services staff communicate regularly with students' teachers.

Teachers are supported in differentiating their programs to accommodate diverse needs within the classroom and the assistance of a Special Teacher Assistant (STA) may be available within the timetable for identified students.

Across Years 5-10 there is a special subject called Student Based Learning (SBL) that seeks to help students with their study patterns and skills. Across Years 5-8 students are withdrawn from their foreign language. In Years 9-10 the SBL classes cover a modified History/Geography curriculum that is compulsory for all students.

Counsellors

The College employs two psychologists, a social worker and two Chaplains to be available for counselling for students, their families and staff. More details and an online booking service are available on the College intranet.
