Our school is focused on providing students with an intellectual disability a learning environment where they have the opportunity to thrive, through the development of skills that will support them in their individual learning and life journey.  Our aim is that all students are provided with the key targeted learning supports that they require to achieve their goals and transition positively through their schooling and life. 

Our staff are highly skilled specialist educators who value each individual student and work tirelessly to ensure that they reach their potential.  We are a collaborative school community with the ethos of ‘a team around each child’, working closely with families and multidisciplinary team members to support students in all aspects of their education.
