The
school's curriculum offerings are customised to meet the individual needs of
students while working in the context of the Australian Curriculum for students
in Prep to Year 10, the Guideline for Individual Learning.
Curriculum
offerings are enhanced by input from therapy support staff and specialist
teachers in the areas of Design and Technology, Health and Physical Education,
and The Arts.
Our
teachers are trained in and over a range of pedagogies, programs and resources
to support the specific
needs of individual students including:
- MOVE (Mobility
Opportunities Via Education). Our aim for all students with physical impairment
is to improve their movement abilities and, by the end of 2019, for our school
to become a model school for the M.O.V.E. approach.

Interaction, which helps students with the highest communication needs engage
in communication and social opportunities.
