Student Support Program:

Bakewell Primary School provides flexible Student Support Programs that are designed to meet the changing needs of students. Students needing extra support are identified through a range of information provided through Whole School Assessment (Years 1 - 6) , NAPLAN results (Years 3 & 5), Assessment of Student Competencies (Transition), teacher observations, assessment by outside agencies and through concerns raised by parents.

Currently there are several programs running to support a wide range of student needs, these include:

  • Communicating to be Heard - aimed at Preschool and Transition students with a focus on Speech and Language, listening, attention, and early literacy skills such as sound awareness, rhythm and rhyme.
  • Early Childhood Literacy Support Program focuses on the three main areas of Literacy - Reading, Writing and Oral Language. The aim of the program is to improve Literacy Outcomes for all students.
  • Quicksmart Maths Program: aimed at Upper Primary students with explicit learning of number skills.
  • Maths Streaming
    Year level teams for Years 3 to 6 classes organise their Maths classes in ability streamed groups. Students are assessed to ensure they are placed into the correct Maths group that will meet their learning needs. There is flexiblity in the grouping to enable students to progress to the next level.
  • Rainbow Reading Program is an intensive small group reading program aimed at developing students' sight words, reading comprehension, text sequencing and oral reading fluency.
  • Jolly Phonics and Jolly Gramar Focus Groups
    The focus groups target identified students to explicitly learn the sounds and names of letters of the alphabet and recognise parts of words, whole words and words in sentences.

Each Semester these programs are reviewed to ensure that students are progressing and that student needs are being met.
