Overview of Role
In your role as an Education Support Teacher – Resource, you have the influence to help your school community embed a truly inclusive learning environment where every learner is valued for their true selves and unique gifts, and where learners determine their own paths.

Every learner deserves a Hopeful Transition, and there will be learners with additional needs for Tier 2 and 3 interventions along with your advocacy to plan for their preferred future and independence. Even when a learner requires additional supports, the classroom educator continues to offer Tier 1 Career Connected Learning alongside additional scaffolding and support.
