The spectrum of learning ability is broad. Our learning enhancement staff work alongside students to enable development.
At Fintona, we use the Response to Intervention model to support our students based on their individual learning needs. Our learning enhancement staff members work in the classroom and with staff to adapt work for students at any place on their learning journey.
Differentiation is a critical component of meeting the diverse skills and abilities of all students. Fintona, in collaboration with families, offers targeted provisions to enable students to develop their academic and personal potential.
We provide opportunities designed to develop the talents of our students through competitions, activities and projects, including Science Talent Search, da Vinci Decathlon, Tournament of Minds, Australian Maths and Science Olympiads and creative writing competitions.
Accelerated programs in Mathematics and Science are part of the academic program from Year 9. They may lead to students studying these subjects at a university level as part of their VCE.
