Outreach Services

Picture
Informed by the Feasibility Study and the 2019-2021 Strategic Plan, YarraMe School Outreach programs have been developed to assist mainstream schools in building the capacity of teaching staff to better understand and support the needs of students with social, emotional and behavioural issues.

The Response to Intervention (RTI) approach is used as a process for assessing and maximising the opportunity to learn for our students. It emphasizes the importance of effective, responsive  early intervention for students in need of intensive supports.

The RTI framework uses a three tiered approach:
- Personalising supports for students
- Building Teacher confidence and skills
- Strengthen universal approaches 

YarraMe School Special Education teachers use a range of inclusive supports including a trauma informed approach to assist schools in the development of personalising learning plans and behaviour management plans for students in need.

​YarraMe Special Education teachers work in collaboration with referring schools in a mentoring role to develop a broader range of strategies to support students in Out-of-
                                                                            Home-Care and students presenting with social and emotional needs.



Inclusion Support Service

Launched in 2016, the Inclusion Support Service is a dedicated outreach program where students are supported in their mainstream schools. Referrals are accepted from primary schools in two areas of the North Western Victoria Region -  metropolitan area of Melbourne and Bendigo 

Secondary Consults

YarraMe School provides 'one off' case consultations to better support students presenting with social and emotional needs, such as challenging behaviours.
Secondary Consultations are designed to assist schools in developing a clear formulation of a student through the development of a learner profile.
