Inclusion Support Service
The Inclusion Support Service is a local resource based on the campus of Deerpark and Lochies Schools.
Aim of the Service
The overall aim of the service is to develop an inclusive model of provision which provides a quality learning and teaching experience for pupils and appropriate support to pupils, staff and parents.
Support
The Support Service works flexibly with partner primary schools to provide support for identified children who are at Stage 3 of the Staged Intervention process and whose educational needs are met through an Individual Educational Programme (IEP).
The level and nature of support is determined by the package necessary to include children in school with their peers and to access the mainstream curriculum in ways best suited to their learning style. Some children will require a high level of support while others may be receiving support on a consultancy or monitoring basis.
In consultation with the class teacher, children are supported in a variety of ways including targeted individual work, experiential group work, differentiation and adaptation of curricular materials.
Based on a model of collaborative, integrated working, support teacher, support worker and speech and language therapist work alongside mainstream staff and parents to achieve the joint goal of successful educational and social inclusion.
Key factors to successful inclusion have been:
- Collaboration and planning;
- Experience and specialist skills of Support Team alongside knowledge and expertise of classroom teachers;
- Support and encouragement of parental involvement;
- Positive attitudes.
