Student Wellbeing Officers

AWE deploys Student Wellbeing Officers in Queensland primary schools

 

Student wellbeing officers support the general wellbeing of students, providing an additional adult role model in the school, and enhancing engagement with the broader community as well as complementing the work of guidance officers. The Qld government provides funding to schools in low socio-economic areas with enrolments over 100 students and several of them have engaged AWE as their provider of choice.
