In the role of student counsellor, you are part of the Care Team of our school. You will support the academic, social, and emotional well-being of our diverse student body by identifying the students’ needs through intake, follow-up, and evaluation meetings. The counsellor will work closely with students, parents, and staff to foster a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning atmosphere. In their individual support, you will formulate support plans and contribute to individual educational plans. Coaching students in their social and/or emotional development, particularly in relation to school performance, will be a key aspect of your role. Depending on the difficulties at hand, you will also develop and provide tailored training for individual students or groups of students. Acting as a coach and advisor, you will assist teachers in implementing inclusive education practices and provide broad-ranging advice on student functioning. By offering workshops, and individual guidance on teaching approaches, and organizing training sessions, you will contribute to the professional development of teachers. You will also contribute to annual plans and reports related to the guidance process and ensure effective monitoring and planning.
