Welcome to Our Learning Centre
Hello and welcome!
Beafield Education Centre operates within the spirit of inclusive practice - recognising the potential for growth for every student and creating the learning conditions to support their incremental growth in all aspects of their learning.
We create restorative opportunities to work in partnership with carers, families, school staff and Department for Education and outside agencies to creatively design personalised intervention that offers the best opportunities for all students to succeed against clearly identified learning and behaviour goals, supporting their re-inclusion back to their enrolled school.
We are preoccupied with applying quality interventions based on current research, ensuring that our interactions with students and the development of learning programs are authentic, solution focussed, intentional and restorative.
Success looks different for every student and as such, is celebrated regardless how big or small it is. We recognise and build on students’ strengths, so outcomes in the areas of personal and social capabilities and in key curriculum areas are achieved.
I look forward to meeting with you and your student and warmly welcome you to our Beafield Education Centre community.
Kind regards,
Susan Furga
Manager
