The Support Class-Hearing within Chatswood Public School offers a small group size of up to 9 students with hearing impairments, a soundproofed classroom, a trained teacher of the Deaf and a school learning support officer (teachers’ aide).
The development of spoken communication takes place throughout the day and regular target lessons with follow-up at home.
Individual learning needs are catered for through personalised education plans.
Integration is an important part of the support class-hearing students’ schooling. Integration gives students from the support class-hearing the opportunity to mix with other students in the school by join lessons with a mainstream class e.g. visual arts, sport. Other Key Learning Areas are targeted for integration depending upon each students needs and areas of giftedness.
Chatswood Public School has easy access to public transport and if students meet the eligibility criteria special transport is available to students with disabilities accessing the support class. |
