STUDENT SUPPORT GROUP (SSG) MEETINGS

SSG bookings are now available on Compass. Please log in to Compass and choose a time slot to book a meeting with the teacher.

If you have difficulties logging in to Compass or booking an SSG please contact the school.

Student Support Group (SSG) meetings are a valuable opportunity for parents/carers, students, and school staff to work together in planning and supporting a student’s learning, wellbeing, and development. These meetings focus on your child’s Individual Education Plan (IEP), which outlines specific learning goals across key areas such as English, Mathematics, and Personal and Social Capabilities.

When and How

SSG meetings take place in Weeks 4 and 5 of each term. Meetings can be held in person, by phone, or via Microsoft Teams. Unless otherwise advised, we will assume your preference is to attend the meeting in person. If you’d prefer a phone or Teams meeting, please let your child’s teacher know. 

If you need to make changes to your child’s usual departure, please notify the classroom teacher prior to the SSG meeting.

Student Involvement

Students are welcome and encouraged to attend their SSG meeting to share their thoughts about their learning. Please note that supervision is not available for students outside of the scheduled meeting time.

Arrival and Parking

Parent parking is available on Aitkin Boulevard. Please enter the school through the Durang (administration) building when attending your meeting.

We look forward to partnering with you to support your child’s continued growth and success.
