Special and Inclusive Education - Support Unit

"Our focus is tailoring education so each child can make progress and reach their potential."
- Jeff Bull, Deputy Principal, Special and Inclusive Education

Our Special and Inclusive Education Faculty caters for students with moderate to high learning and support needs. 

Each of our Special Education classes has a dedicated teacher, as well as learning support staff. It is a highly supportive learning environment. 

Each of our 8 classroom's include flexible seating and sensory/calm spaces, supporting students to engage in learning and other school experiences in a comfortable and safe space. All our classrooms are also fitted with assistive technologies.

Our teaching and learning programs cover an adjusted curriculum to meet the specific needs, goals and abilities of each of our students. Integrated Units and interest based activities are used to promote student engagement and support learning adjustments so that all students can participate and experience success. 

All our students are welcome to participate in our school’s extra-curricular activities. 

We expect our students to adhere to the ethos of the school and become safe, respectful learners who achieve to the best of their ability.
