Learning with FASD: Building Capacity: The Case of Supporting Students Impacted by FASD

This webinar is part of the Learning with FASD webinar series: learningwithfasd.org.au/
This webinar is for primary school teaching and support staff who are interested how school communities can build capacity to address diverse needs of all students. Supporting all students in our schools is challenging; the observed increase in diversity of student’ needs in our schools has added to this challenge. Recent forums have linked this challenge with teacher burnout and teachers leaving the profession. Schools that create an ethos of inclusion and working together, appear to excel in addressing the diversity of student need. This presentation outlines several attributes to building a strong, collaborative school ethos. Using the work around supporting students impacted by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), this presentation identifies how school communities can build capacity to address diverse needs of all students.
