    Individualised Plans for Students Accessing an Alternative Curriculum Level

    This podcast episode brings together interviews with advisors from each of the three education systems in Queensland (State, Independent, and Catholic) to discuss students with intellectual disability accessing curriculum aligned with their year level curriculum, alongside their age peers, but that is adjusted to the expectations of a lower year level or to highly individualised goals. We delve into how teachers make decisions about who should access these individualised curriculum plans, what evidence and processes are involved, how to make decisions about what year level curriculum should be the access point for the student, and what the implications of these plans might be. For schools wanting tailored advice on decisions around an individual curriculum plan for their student with Down syndrome/Intellectual Disability, please register for our free ID:8 service (https://downsyndrome.powerappsportals.com/id8/) or one of our QEST services (email: education@downsyndromeqld.org.au). DSQ’s Education Services are proudly supported by the Queensland Government. This podcast is a production of Down Syndrome Queensland.

    Navigating Prenatal Screening (re-release)

    Through work supporting families through prenatal screening and diagnosis, we often hear stories of misinformation about life with Down syndrome and an assumption that following a diagnosis, prospective parents would choose termination. We also hear stories of choices not being supported or respected; and frequently, families have to stumble upon support services themselves rather than being referred to them as part of ongoing care during the remainder of their pregnancies. Research suggests that currently, many families may not be making fully informed choices about prenatal testing. We are concerned that some families may be making decisions that are based on negative community attitudes and inaccurate, outdated information about Down syndrome. As part of our mid-year appeal, we invite you to support Down Syndrome Queensland's efforts in providing crucial prenatal screening support. Your donation helps us continue our mission of ensuring families have access to accurate information and the support they need during their prenatal journey. Donate at the Down Syndrome Queensland Fundraising Page.  Visit the Prenatal Screening website for all the information. This podcast is a production of Down Syndrome Queensland.
