Information products for students with disability and their parents and carers

The Department of Education have worked with students with disability and their parents and caregivers to produce a number of resources.

The resources were designed to help students with disability and their parents and caregivers:

• Understand their rights as a student with a disability, or the rights of their child.
• Work with education providers to make sure they can learn and participate on the same basis as students without disability. 

The resources are as follows (please press on each picture to access the resources):

Junior Maths Games

The Junior Maths Games provide an opportunity for students in Years 3-6. The primary focus of this maths program is to build students' confidence and allow them to develop their mathematical skills, with the first paper providing less challenging questions, progressing to more challenging concepts through the year. This year we used data from previous maths assessments to select a team from St John the Apostle Primary from Years 3-6.

A massive congratulations to these students for receiving the following APSMO 2022 Maths Games Competition Awards:

1^st Place - Harry P (Year 5)

2^nd Place - Bhoomika P (Year 6)

Equal 3^rd Place - Emily A and Amy S (Year 6)

Most Improved - Emily N
