Support for Every Student (Students’ outlook)
Students at Gresham’s School are clear on the fact that the school prioritizes an education where no one is left behind. The Learning Support Department is proof of this. This team stands ready to help students with different challenges, whether it’s Dyslexia or ADHD, or any other learning hurdle.
Tailored Approach to Learning
Gresham’s doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all education. Here, students with learning difficulties get their own learning plan. It’s not just about extra help; it’s about figuring out what works best for them. Each student teams up with a tutor who’s there to find out what they’re good at and where they could use some work. Together, they build the skills that are needed to do well in school.
Team Learning
The school also knows how important it is to learn from and with others who understand your challenges. That’s why there are group sessions, where students with similar difficulties can come together to improve their skills. More than that, it’s a chance for them to give each other advice and support.
Making the Most of Technology
Gresham’s students are also equipped with the latest tech to help with their learning. Tools like text-to-speech and speech-to-text software mean that students can tackle their work in a way that suits them, making learning something that everyone can manage.
Working with Teachers
But it’s not just about the students and tutors; the Learning Support Department makes sure teachers are in the loop too. The goal is for teachers to know the best ways to support students with learning difficulties in the regular classroom setting.
A School That Cares
All in all, the efforts of Gresham’s School’s Learning Support Department reflect the overall mission of the school: to make sure every student gets the chance to succeed. For students here, it’s clear that the school isn’t just talking about inclusivity—it’s living it, with resources and support that show they’re serious about education for all.
