WAB has always prioritized inclusivity as part of its core values. The Student Support Services team at WAB plays an important role in creating a sense of safety and belonging for students. WAB's student support services encompass a wide range of areas, including language acquisition support, learning support, social-emotional well-being support, psychological support, and therapeutic support. Through a collaborative effort involving learning support, English as an Additional Language and Enriched Inclusion staff, counselors, and external therapists, students receive comprehensive assistance tailored to their specific needs.
In this week's WAB Podcast, we sit down with WAB's Whole School Educational Psychologist Christin Topper, who in the next school year will also take on the role of Head of Student Support Services.
During the conversation, Christin emphasizes the support services team's commitment to meeting the diverse needs of students. As she states, "We don't deliver programs. We put the students at the center, and every student is different. And once we know their strengths, their interests, their passions, their areas of growth, then we develop support around that child."
