Outreach Coaching Service
Yarra Me coaches work collaboratively with referring schools to build whole school capacity to support the needs of students with social and emotional needs. The current practice involves the Outreach Coach working intensively with schools for a 10-week period through SWPBS, developing personalized supports for targeted students, while working towards building whole school capacity.
During this service the Outreach Coach may recognise the need to include further support to the school such as the addressing whole school practice and capacity building in social emotional learning. In this case, the Outreach Coach would recommend including further support from the Yarra Me SEL Coach for part of the 10-week intervention at the school.
