Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS)

We are excited to share that St Mary's will be working in partnership with the Diocese of Toowoomba Catholic Schools Office to embark on a journey to enhance our teaching and support systems through Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS). MTSS is a framework that helps us provide the right level of support to every student, ensuring they succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.

Over the next three years, beginning in 2025, we will be partnering with Associate Professor Shiralee Poed and Madeleine Hopper from the University of Queensland to guide us in this important work. We look forward to working together to enhance the nurturing and effective learning environment we provide to all our students.
