2026 Parent/Carer Tailored Learning Perception Survey

Dear Parent/Caregiver,

As a parent/carer of a student who is currently receiving Tailored Learning support, we would like to provide you with the opportunity to let us know your thoughts and feelings on how Tailored Learning is impacting your child.

We would also love to hear any recommendations that you feel would make positive changes to Tailored Learning support. Your feedback helps us understand what’s working well and where we can improve, so that every student receives the support they need to thrive.

This survey will only take a few minutes to complete, and your time is appreciated.

Thank you for being a valued part of your child’s learning journey.

Wonderful news! We are incredibly proud to celebrate the success of our talented ILC students, who took out the top honours in this year's inaugural NAIDOC Week Art Prize in Mount Gambier.

This year's theme, '50 Years Deadly - A Celebration of Country, Community, Culture,' inspired artists to create powerful works that honoured the richness, strength and resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Thank you to David and Lachlan, from the MFS Road Awareness Program, for presenting to our students today. It was engaging, informative and a little bit confronting. Students who were present have vowed to be responsible road users both behind the wheel, as passengers and pedestrians.
