1 APPENDIX A SCHOOL-BASED RESOURCES Classroom Teacher - The classroom teacher is responsible for providing a quality education to all students. Duties include: classroom organization and management, assessment, setting objectives, teaching, behaviour management, working with parents and professionals, individual education planning, and reporting. The classroom teacher is also responsible for directing the daily work of teacher assistants that may be assigned to his/her classroom. Parents - Parents work in partnership with classroom teachers and other support staff in providing a quality education to their children. In addition to sharing information about their child's personal characteristics they actively participate in determining the goals of their child's educational plan and in establishing and reinforcing the strategies and activities to reach and measure those goals. Student - Students, in accordance with their developmental capacity and interests, are involved in all aspects of their education. Students experiencing learning and behaviour difficulties have input into the problem solving process. They are informed of assessment results and their ideas and opinions are solicited in the development of IEPs. In certain circumstances when a student is significantly challenged, his/her peers may take an active role in the development of the IEP and other activities in and out of the classroom. Students with certain specific challenging educational needs may require additional school-based resources. These resources are based on Ministry of Education categories and criteria for special needs students. A complete listing and definitions of all Ministry categories is provided in the Ministry of Education document, Special Education Services: a Manual of Policies, Procedures and Guidelines. School-Based Team - School-based teams are established in each school in School District No. 57. School-based teams are viewed as support systems for solving problems within individual classrooms and at the school level. In particular, school-based teams serve to enhance the ability of teachers to serve difficult-toteach children and youth in the regular classroom. Ai
2 School-based teams are also the most knowledgeable group in the school with respect to resources that are available within the school, and where and how to access resources beyond the school. They are an integral part of the problem solving process. Further detail on the structure and operation of school-based teams is outlined in the Practices section of this manual. Support/Learning Assistance Teacher - The support/learning assistance teacher is a school-based teacher with the special knowledge, skills, and experience necessary to act as a resource to staff and parents who are supporting students requiring individual education programs. Detailed information on guidelines and best practices may be found in the Support Teacher's Manual, Guidelines and Best Practices. Multiple copies of this manual are in every school building. This manual is available in pdf version on 57 Online, located in the Information Centre, under Forms and Documents. Teacher Assistant/Youth Care Worker - A teacher assistant or youth care worker operates under the daily guidance of the classroom teacher and is directly accountable to him/her. The exact role of the assistant or worker will vary from one situation to another and will be determined by the classroom teacher in consultation with the support team. Much of the teacher assistant's or youth care worker's time is spent on helping the teacher implement student IEPs. Teacher assistants and youth care workers help motivate students, build their selfconfidence, and provide additional individual attention to those who need it. Detailed information on guidelines and best practices may be found in the Teacher Assistant/Youth Care Worker, Manual on Guidelines and Best Practices. This manual is available on 57 Online, located in the Information Centre, under Forms and Documents. Alternative Education Programs - Secondary schools typically offer various alternative programs that enhance educational experiences for all learners, and provide direct individualized service to specific students. These programs include: Transition 8, Alternate, Pre-employment, Learning Centre/Skills Support, etc. Counselling - Counselling services are provided at all secondary and junior secondary schools. Elementary counsellors are available at some elementary Aii
3 schools. All counselling services are under the direct supervision of the principals of the schools to which they are assigned. DISTRICT BEHAVIOUR TEAMS The District Behaviour Teams were reconfigured in 2008 to shift from a model providing 1:1 support for students with behavioural challenges to one which increased capacity in schools and teachers to better deal with student behavioural challenges. The model also promotes building student capacity and ability to selfregulate their behaviour. The belief is that staff understanding of where students are coming from is a key factor in how staff should respond and support them. As a result of this philosophical shift, mini behaviour teams are being developed within some schools in the district that work in conjunction and consultation with the District Behaviour Team. Three District Behaviour Teams have been established and are comprised of a District Behaviour Specialist, Youth Care Worker and an Educational Assistant. In Prince George, they provide direct service in elementary schools to students experiencing severe social-emotional difficulties and consultative services to secondary schools. Over time services to students may be direct, consultative, or a combination of both involving students when appropriate, parents, school staff and other support personnel. Currently, the communities of McBride and Valemont receive behavioural support from a 0.4 FTE Behaviour Specialist. McKenzie receives consultative support from a designated Prince George Behaviour Team. District Behaviour Team Goals are: - Enhance school capacity (system & practices) to address behavioural challenges and social-emotional needs. - Proactively address social emotional needs within the school district. - Enhance knowledge of school district staff through in-service training. - Diminish disruptions that impede teaching and learning within the school. - Establish and sustain positive school communities through assisting with the implementation of school wide positive supports systems. - Reclaim instructional time lost to behavioural disruptions within the school setting. - Establish systems to proactive that increase adoption and sustained use of reliable and valid research. Aiii
4 - Early identification and intervention of social emotional and behavioural concerns. - Enhance safe schools initiatives by minimizing and the impact of traumatic events in the school district. Mini Behaviour Team Goals are: - Enhance the school s capacity (system & practices) to address behavioural challenges and social emotional needs. - Proactively address social-emotional needs within their school. - Reclaim instructional time lost to behavioural disruptions within the school setting. - Establish positive relationships within the school community. - Work with students, teachers and families to encourage consistent interventions across environments. Services provided by the District Behaviour Team are: - Build capacity of students, staff and schools to manage behavioural and/or social-emotional difficulties. Services may be direct, consultative, or a combination of both, including services to students, parents, school personnel and other support personnel. Consultative services are provided to the secondary school as required. - Consultative resource to all schools for issues related to data collection, identification, and documentation of behaviour. - Consultation to School Based Teams regarding staff development and in-service activities such as Non-Violent Physical Crisis Intervention, behaviour intervention training, Fun FRIENDS, Child FRIENDS, Youth FRIENDS, WITS (Walk away, Ignore, Talk it out and Seek help), etc. - Respond to all critical events (CERT) and Violent Risk Threat Assessments (VTRA) in the district. - Work collaboratively with the Elementary Support Program (ESP) which provides intensive social-emotional learning in a small group environment. The District Behaviour Team works with the ESP program and acts as a gatekeeper to the program in conjunction with a screening board. The process involves identifying and screening of potential applicants and assisting with their transition back into the home school. The District Behaviour Team also provides liaison to the program and coordinates and attends all screening meetings and assists with behaviour support planning for the program. Aiv
5 Referrals to the District Behaviour Team for support are presented at Student Support Team Meetings (SSTM) by School Based Teams and consist of a completed referral form accompanied by pertinent documentation of school-based interventions tried, the duration of interventions and success levels achieved. Documentation will be reviewed and discussed with the District Behaviour Specialist who will determine if further consultation or intervention is necessary prior to Behavioural Team involvement. DISTRICT ITINERANT STAFF District Behaviour Specialists District Behaviour Specialists report directly to the District Principal of Student Support Services and provide the following district services: - Coordinate activities and behavioural support for all district schools - Conduct in-service to staff and district personnel - Support students referred by the School Conduct Review Committee - Complete 1701 designation for Elementary school Category H students - Work collaboratively with other Student Support Services Itinerant staff and school personnel as members providing Critical and Emergency Response Team (CERT) support for district schools and Violent Threat Risk Assessment (VTRA) when required - Participate in Student Support Team Meetings (SSTM) - Co-ordinate and attend Screening Meetings and determine appropriate school program referrals - Work collaboratively with the Elementary Support Program - Presentations and committee work with school trustees and senior administration as directed by the District Principal of Student Support Services - Provide emergency response as needed to school and district personnel - Liaise with community agencies in various capacities, including meetings, training and community committees - Coordinate and consult regarding CDC transition District Behaviour Specialists are assigned to consult and support designated schools within the District and coordinate District Behaviour Team services.
