  • Our approach

    Kilparrin's approach centres on providing accommodations and modifications to support children with vision and/or hearing loss and additional disabilities to access the curriculum. Sessions include specialised teaching in the Expanded Core Curriculum tailored to individual needs, with explicit instruction in areas such as language acquisition, social-emotional development, motor skills, conceptual understanding and independence. Teaching and learning recommendations are based on informal and formal assessment, observation across a variety of contexts, and evidence-based practice. Staff consider each child's individual barriers to learning due to their diagnosis and use specialised resources and strategies to help students access education on the same basis as their peers.
