"At Risk" students. to provide social and emotional support by reinforcing the idea of self esteem and positive self imaging We shall also strive to be eclectic in our approach, and believe that a  combined effort of family members, administrators, teaching staff culturally aware supporters and others are necessary to meet the needs of our diverse community.

behavior" due to traumatic intrusion in their lives, for example, physical or

Capability...

            is an integration of knowledge, skills, understanding and personal
            qualities used appropriately and effectively at work and in life
            generally;
            is a broader and richer concept than competencies, being
            concerned as much with future potential as with immediate needs;
            involves the whole person, including values and emotional

        Compared with a competency model, in which outcomes and
        performance indicators are predetermined, a capability model presents

        Helping students to become more responsible and accountable for their
        own learning is excellent preparation for continuing professional
        education, lifelong learning, resource-based learning and research.

instance, can put forward ideas for:

    coordinating different types of education (primary, secondary and adult
    education)
    planning and updating course material
    coordinating related subjects, e.g. physics, chemistry and biology
    gearing course material to the needs and wishes of special groups of students,
    e.g. ethnic groups
    using new media, e.g. CD-i and CD-ROM
