SSS CASE MANAGERS

Our SSS Case Managers and teacher aides work closely with students who have additional needs, helping to put tailored adjustments in place to support their learning and wellbeing. They collaborate with classroom teachers to implement these adjustments effectively and also provide social and emotional support to ensure every student feels included and supported at school. Over the coming weeks, SSS staff will share some information about themselves and the work they do to support your children.
