Here's what our schools and parents say about JCAS;
Having an Aide this year has helped my son thrive in both general studies and especially Jewish Studies, where there is limited assistive technology. He has always enjoyed math's and having an aide in the classroom has been a huge help as he has been able to be part of the cohort within the classroom. The aide was able to support my son by giving him what he needed and not making him feel different. Without JCAS support, my child would never have been able to thrive academically, socially and emotionally. We look forward to continued support in High School. Mother of student at Yeshiva College

With the support from JCAS, our children have received the most valuable support in the classroom and socially from the education support staff. Heather Bunting, school psychologist, Mount Scopus Memorial College (Primary)Â
The funding received [from JCAS] has been instrumental in transforming the educational journey of the students with unique needs. We have been able to provide in-class support with an assistant, as well as one-on-one/group withdrawal with an assistant. We have been able to provide targeted support and tailored interventions that address the specific challenges faced by the student. As a result, we have witnessed progress in academic performance and increased confidence. Maxine Reichenberg, Head of Student Services, Cheder Levi Yitzchok

Some of our students have been very fortunate to benefit from the additional funds that we have received from JCAS. In my class I have had two extensive students this year who have required full-time support with an education assistant. The education assistants have assisted in delivering a fully modified curriculum to these students, enabling them to attend Leibler Yavneh College. It has been amazing to see how the extra support has benefited some students. Without this support, some students would not be able to be in a mainstream setting. JCAS do a phenomenal job to support students with additional needs. Year one teacher, Leibler Yavneh College
