School support

School support includes adjustments that help students access learning. It can include extra time, quiet spaces, or assistive tools.

Definition

Support can be informal or part of a plan such as an IEP or 504 plan. Collaboration between families and schools improves outcomes. Support should be personalised and reviewed regularly. The aim is access, not lowering expectations.
