What is Academic Enrichment?

Academic Enrichment at Grace

The College recognises the unique learning and personal needs of gifted and academically talented students. The Academic Enrichment Program of Grace Lutheran College incorporates dedicated staff who case manage our gifted and talented students, partnering with the child, their teachers and their parents in order to achieve best outcomes.

To qualify for the Academic Enrichment Program of the College, students must apply for the Ignite Excellence: Mathematics, Science and/or English programs and complete the required assessments at an exceptionally high level. Alternatively, students who demonstrate exceptionally high levels of academic performance across their subjects at the College for a minimum of 2 years may be considered to join the program.

Academic Enrichment Staff

Both the Academic Enrichment Coordinator of the College and the Academic Enrichment Case Managers across Middle School and Senior School are available to support the academic, social, emotional and organisational needs of our Academic Enrichment students. Our Academic Enrichment staff are experienced in supporting students with perfectionism, anxiety, twice exceptionality, organisational struggles, time management challenges and study skill needs.

Individualised Academic Enrichment Plans

As part of the program, individualised Academic Enrichment Plans are written for participating students. These plans identify their areas of strength and growth. Co-curricular competitions and excursions are also on offer for these students.
