An integral part of our pastoral care program is our Assistant Principals and Year Level Coordinators. Assistant Principals and Year Level Coordinators follow each cohort through their time at Darwin High which ensures a strong relationship with each student and their family. Darwin High School is a MindMatters school.
Our professional and compassionate Student Support team consists of:
For many students, their Year Level Coordinator is the first port of call if they have any issues, academically or emotionally. Coordinators advocate for students, give advice and/or refer students to the relevant support people within our Student Support team. In addition to this, Coordinators monitor student attendance and achievement.
All of our students have access to counselling services at school. If the door is open, students are welcome to 'drop in' otherwise appointments can be made. Our counsellor is able to provide advice and support on a wide range of issues for both students and their parents and can provide referrals to other support services.
Our Home Liaison Officer is a key contact for students experiencing difficulties affecting their attendance at school. The Home Liaison Officer works with students and families to support school attendance and follows up students who have unexplained and continuing absences.
Our AIEW works with teachers, students and parents to maximise Indigenous students' attendance and engagement in school and pathways to further education.
Our Youth Engagement Police Officer is a member of our school community who works to enhance relationships between police and the community through positive interactions with youth. The Youth Engagement Police Officer also monitors road safety and personal safety issues in the school.
Our International Liaison Officer assists International Fee Paying students who attend Darwin High School and facilitates international education groups who visit the school.
