Learning Communities To facilitate Student support and allow each student to be known and feel connected, Officer Secondary College has implemented four Learning Communities. Each Vertical Sub School is made up of students from Year 7 - 10. These Learning Communities, are supported by Sub School Learning Culture Leaders, Learning Community Leaders and Learning Community Teachers, foster an encouraging and friendly atmosphere in which students can learn effectively, and focus on preventing problems before they occur. Each Learning Community will foster the junior and senior years and allow students to build friendship groups, work with peers and develop relationships within their Learning Community. Each Learning Community Leadership team also includes a Learning Specialist who supports the teachers in the Learning Community to improve their practice and a Wellbeing Team member, who ensures each student's emotional needs are met. All teachers are assigned to a Learning Community and teach the students in this Learning Community. This support includes closely monitoring the academic and personal growth of each student in their Learning Community. Students remain in the same Learning Community from Year 7 to 10 at Officer Secondary College, which allows Sub School Learning Culture Leaders and Learning Community Leaders to develop a close relationship with each student and understand each student individual needs. Learning Community Leaders liaise with student's families as the need arises.
