International Orientation

This policy outlines how St Andrew's College meets the requirements of Code Outcome 17, clauses 69–70; Outcome 18, clause 72.c–e; and Outcome 19, clauses 78–79.

Orientation processes are required for long-term and short-term enrolments, including group students. Orientation for international learners (and their parents where relevant) is a key process that begins before a learner arrives, is very important in the first few weeks, and continues throughout the period of enrolment. Ongoing advice and support is provided to learners and their parents.

Orientation programme and information

We ensure that the orientation programme and information provided to learners is relevant to their situation, age-appropriate, and in the learner's own language if necessary. We take care not to overload learners with information. We use a planned approach, repeat key information, and try to make sure learners understand the information they receive.

We regularly review our orientation programme and information and update them as needed to ensure we are providing the best possible orientation for our international learners.

Our orientation programme provides each international learner with information about:
