If students are not at school they can’t benefit from all that school has to offer – not just for learning but also for wellbeing and social-emotional development.
But students in out-of-home care (OOHC) are absent from school far more than their peers.
Professor Kitty te Riele and colleagues from five universities are doing research to explore how to support students in OOHC to be at school just like their peers.
We would like to learn from the insights of school staff:
Not just school leaders and teachers, but also teacher assistants, social workers, counsellors, Aboriginal Education Workers, occupational therapists, school nurses and anyone else working with students in OOHC in schools.
We invite you to have a say by taking part in our anonymous survey. This online survey will take about 15 mins to complete.
