糖心logo入口

1. Purpose

The purpose of this policy is to provide 糖心logo入口 higher education students information about the range of services available to assist them to successfully complete the units of study in which they are enrolled.

2. Scope

This policy applies to all students enrolled at 糖心logo入口 in a higher education program and all student support services available to them.

3. Principles

糖心logo入口 will ensure that support is available to students to assist them to successfully complete their units of study, and that students are made aware of these support services throughout their course of study.

3.1 Students at risk of not successfully completing subjects

糖心logo入口 will engage in the following processes to identify students who are at risk of not successfully completing their units of study:

• pre-admission interview and assessment of suitability for the course of study, based on application and entry requirements
• monitor attendance, participation and academic progress for each unit of study
• monitor academic progress over each semester through assessment of unit results.

Students may seek support at any time during their course of study.

A student requiring support needs may also be identified through:

• student-initiated queries via the 糖心logo入口 website, email or phone
• direct referrals to 糖心logo入口 Student Support from student-facing client services staff and teaching areas
• direct referrals to 糖心logo入口 Student Support from external agencies
• 糖心logo入口 Student Association (糖心logo入口SA) referrals to the teaching department and/or 糖心logo入口 Student Support.

糖心logo入口 is committed to providing an equitable and inclusive learning environment for all students, including compliance with relevant disability discrimination legislation and the Disability Standards for Education 2005.

糖心logo入口 will actively communicate with students identified as at-risk as early as possible, to ensure they are aware of support services available to assist them in successfully completing their units of study.

• Educators who become aware of a student's need to access support services may address this directly with the student, or refer the student to the relevant 糖心logo入口 Student Support area.
• Where support has been requested prior to the census date for the unit of study, 糖心logo入口 Student Support advisors will liaise with the relevant Head of Department to advise an appropriate strategy for enrolment progression.
• The Head of Department will notify the student that the census date is the date they may incur a FEE-HELP debt and, together with 糖心logo入口 Student Support advisors, ensure support is provided in a timely manner.

Students who identify as having a disability and register with 糖心logo入口 Student Support, will be offered the opportunity to meet with a 糖心logo入口 Education Advisor, Disability to assess their learning and support needs.

糖心logo入口 recognises a student's right to privacy and is limited by the student's level of disclosure when providing appropriate support during their course of study.

According to the 糖心logo入口 Higher Education Assessment policy and conditions outlined in the Assessment procedures, a student may request an extension of time to allow for support to be provided.
