In seventh grade

In consultation, students can use the homework class free of charge, where they can work under supervision and be helped to plan their schoolwork.

During the first weeks of junior high, all students of the HAVO and HAVO/VWO bridge classes will be tested for spelling, reading and calculating. The vwo students are tested for spelling and understanding reading. Based on the results of these tests, an advice for further guidance may follow. During the remedial teaching, the Mousework/Numo test and practice program is used. Pupils who have submitted a dyslexia declaration at the time of registration are offered during the first year of RT, so that they can make a good start in modern foreign languages in particular.

Also in the following years of learning, language and mathematics skills are tested with cito- and You! tests. Pupils who do not (yet) reach the appropriate reference level will be offered a support programme in Numo until the pupils have reached the desired level.

Dyslexic pupils are assigned a dyslexia coach in the higher learning years to whom they can go when they experience learning difficulties associated with their dyslexia. Students with dyslexia are entitled to time extension in tests. With the coach you can discuss whether the dyslexic student can also use auditory support.. The dyslexia protocol is available on the website www.lcl.nl.

Students with another mother tongue who have not been in education for six years in the Netherlands will receive NT2 lessons in small groups and guidance in the homework. They are entitled to time extension when checking and using a dictionary. This guidance applies to the secondary school, but also afterwards, as long as the pupil has not completed six years of education in the Netherlands.

For all years of learning, it is possible to receive tutoring from a pupil in the superstructure for a small fee in any subject. Notifications are made through the media library.

We offer extra challenge and guidance for more gifted students, both in the under- and in the upper building. The gymnasiumPlusclass offers education adapted to highly gifted or more gifted pupils in grade 1 and 2. In the basement we know BrainSport Junior. Students selected for this may skip some classes and work one or two hours on projects each week. In addition, students receive guidance on their executive functions, such as learning to learn to work and self-direction, so that they have an adequate learning and work attitude.

At the Lorentz Casimir Lyceum, a highly gifted coordinator, together with more gifted students, looks at what is needed to realise the appropriate challenge. This is customised individually focused on the child.

For long-term students, the school has long-term reduction trainers who in small groups provide the students with tools to deal with stress. Application is usually made at the request of the student himself and in consultation with or on the recommendation of the mentor or year-level coordinator. Help to deal with stress moments is available for all seasons. For graduation candidates there is a separate training experience with exam stress.

For students who need additional support in the field of planning and study skills when preparing test weeks, it is possible to attend a separate meeting twice a year. During this meeting, students make a planning of the learning and attention is paid to the balance between effort and relaxation. Various study skills are also discussed.

In the mentor lessons in the substructure, attention is explicitly paid to bullying and its possible consequences. Guest classes are also organized regularly. The school feels responsible for the anti-bullying policy and makes every effort to prevent this problem by paying attention to bullying behavior and to taking appropriate measures on its alert. Collaboration with parents will often be necessary, both in terms of alert and in terms of approach. An anti-pest coordinator is present at school, this is Mr (Erik) Janssen. It's accessible via Janssen.e@lcl.nl. The anti-bully protocol of our school is available on the website www.lcl.nl with parents and students/documents and forms.

In the South-East region of Brabant a cooperation has been established between schools GGD, youth aid, GGZ and municipalities. The aim of the cooperation is to quickly pick up and tackle signs of gloom among young people. STORM stands for Strong Teans and Resilient Minds. The STORM approach is a preventive programme aimed at stimulating the development of a positive self-image, resilience and resilience. The STORM approach consists of four interventions. At school, lessons on mental health are given. Mentors and teachers are trained in how to engage with students when they are not well in their skin. The GGD reduces questionnaires to detect depressive symptoms and suicidal thoughts in time. At school, the skill training "At full power" is offered by student guidance. More information about STORM can be found at www.stormapproach.nl.

For students who need extra support for a longer period of time, an individual plan of approach is developed. In these situations, we would already like to talk to parents and students about what support is needed and to discuss what the school can offer.

Individual guidance or guidance in small groups is possible when it comes to planning and study skills, guidance in executive functions or social emotional problems. A team of professional student counselors will provide students with short-term support if necessary.

When additional support is needed for a long time, an OPP (DevelopmentPerspectivePlan) is established. This describes the student's need for support and sets the objectives for guidance together with the pupil and parents. The support objectives are in principle directly or indirectly related to school and are often diverse in nature. During the school year the OPP is evaluated with the pupil and the parents and adjusted where necessary.
