Faculty of Differentiated Learning
At LHC, our Faculty of Differentiated Learning (FDL) is
dedicated to supporting students with diverse learning
needs through specialised structures and staff. We provide
extra support and classroom adjustments for students
with learning disabilities, ensuring they have the resources
needed to succeed academically.
Key Areas of Support:
• Additional Studies Program: Our Additional Studies
program, part of the FDL, consists of two weekly lessons
aimed at consolidating a variety of learning skills based
on individual needs. This includes numeracy, literacy,
memory, and organisational skills. Essential skills such
as time management, exam preparation, and assessment
assistance are also emphasised. This program replaces
the study of a language subject and Business, depending
on the semester, and participation is noted on report cards
as extra provisions.
• Literacy: We offer targeted literacy support to enhance
student’s reading and writing skills
• Numeracy: Our numeracy programs focus on
strengthening mathematical understanding and problemsolving abilities.
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Students: Through
the college’s Mirragin program we offer culturally
responsive support to ensure these students receive
equitable educational opportunities.
• High Achieving Students: We provide extension
opportunities in a range of subject areas to challenge and
extend the learning of high-achieving students.
