EDMAS6025 Understanding and Supporting Young People
(PSTs) will explore typical and atypical development with a focus on brain development, diverse needs and the full range of abilities. Utilising Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) PSTs will explore Trauma-Aware Education to learn pro-active practices and develop approaches that develop skill in areas such as building routines and developing classroom expectations. PSTs examine research-informed approaches to inclusion, behaviour support processes, effective communication and building relationships to create positive learning environments in the classroom. Legislative obligations are explored to understand requirements and responsibilities for reasonable adjustments. A needs-based approach underpins approaches to catering for the needs and support approaches for all learners in the classroom.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $578
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $578
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
