Student Services

Supporting students is an integral part of our approach to learning at Eaton Community College.

Student Services provides necessary support to those students who are experiencing social and emotional challenges and those who require behaviour support and intervention. The team works through a therapeutic care model that emphasises support for:

• Positive behaviour support
• Restorative justice
• Trauma informed practice
• Whole school support planning
• Counselling
• Mediation and conflict resolution
• Anxiety and resilience strategies

If your child requires assistance with attendance, behaviour or requires emotional/social support, please contact the team and we can assist you.

The team consists of:
