Gonzaga College SJ

[EduCativ]

Gonzaga College is a Jesuit school, a Catholic educational community working to establish gospel values as the cornerstone of our local, national, and international society.
We strive to form men of competence, conscience, courage, and compassion men of integrity, whose faith affirms each individual's uniqueness and dignity, demands a generous commitment to service and seeks to bring about a world where justice is the birthright of all.
Holistic development of the individual student, based on the pursuit of excellence in his academic, cultural, physical, social, and spiritual growth, is at the core of our mission.
The motto of our school is Semper et Ubique Fidelis: Always and Everywhere Faithful.
The Special Educational Needs (SEN) Department in Gonzaga College SJ supports students who have been assessed with a specific learning need according to the guidelines of the Department of Education & Skills (DES).
Support from the DES is allocated under these guidelines for students who receive resource teaching support for designated learning needs. Applications for resource support are applied on an individual basis through the Special Educational Needs Organiser (SENO) assigned to the College by National Council for Special Education. These applications are made annually and throughout the year, to the SENO.
The College is not in receipt of DES funding for learning support. However, it currently allocates funding from its resources to provide support to address the needs of those students who do not meet the DES criteria relating to resource teaching support. Such students are supported by the SEN department, the pastoral team, and classroom teachers responsible for that student.
Reasonable accommodations for students in State Examinations are applied for each year by the SEN department. It may be necessary for parents to update professional reports to assist in this application process.
