Student Support Team

Cornerstone Christian College’s Student Support Team provides support for students’ social, emotional, and spiritual welfare in a variety of ways. Learning happens more effectively as we recognise the many and varied challenges that students often carry with them into the school day.

The team consists of Wellbeing staff and our Inclusive Education staff.

Student Wellbeing

Our wellbeing staff offer social and emotional support to students who are experiencing some of life's challenges. Our staff have backgrounds in Social Work, mental health and counselling and work alongside teachers and external community services to care for students. Staff are available Monday - Friday.

Students can contact the wellbeing staff directly or via a teacher. Parents who would like to speak to the wellbeing staff are encouraged to do so via email to: wellbeing@cornerstone.wa.edu.au

Inclusive Education

Providing excellent educational support for our students is a priority at Cornerstone. As such we have a dedicated Inclusive Education Coordinator in Primary and Secondary.

Our Inclusive Education Coordinators work collaboratively with teachers to develop individual education plans, with teachers referring students for academic testing as they deem necessary.

The services of the School Psychologist (through the Association of Independent Schools in WA) and a Speech Pathologist and Occupational Therapist (Naturaliste Community Health Centre) are also called in to consult, assess and provide programs and suggestions for students who are at educational risk.

And integral to in-class learning we have Education Assistants (EAs) working throughout the school, including our Early Learning Centre.
