Support for the whole college journey.
Every student should feel safe, supported and empowered to thrive academically and personally.
Support during your studies
At Hellyer College, we are committed to supporting every student through a holistic wellbeing approach, consistent with DECYP values of respect, growth, courage and connection. College life is different from high school, and we aim to ensure all students feel safe, supported and empowered to thrive both academically and personally.
Students are encouraged to speak with their Subject Teachers, Career and Life Planning (CLP) Teacher, Assistant Principals or Principal if they have questions about their course or require assistance with wellbeing, pastoral or general concerns.
Your CLP Teacher will:
- Support you as you settle into college life.
- Introduce themselves to your family.
- Meet with you to discuss progress toward your TCE and personal goals.
- Monitor your attendance weekly.
- Check in regularly and support you throughout your two years at college.
- Contact your parent or guardian if issues or concerns arise.
- Discuss your transition plan and deliver the TASC Career and Life Planning course.
- Encourage you to make the most of every opportunity at Hellyer College.
