Flexible Learning Centre

The Flexible Learning Centre (FLC) provides support to meet the diversity of needs for students at Taminmin College.  The FLC is a space where students can come to receive additional academic and wellbeing support in a quiet environment.  This service is negotiated by the class teacher, learning enhancement teacher, year level coordinator and the student.

In addition to this space, the FLC coordinator oversees the provision of in-class Inclusion Support Assistants (ISA) and the regular review of Education Adjustment Plans.

A range of flexible options is available to encourage students to be actively and positively engaged with their learning, building pathways to further learning beyond school.
