Education is the most powerful tool which can be used to change the world for the better – that is why our teachers are one of our most vital resources, capable of helping our students to shape the potential of their futures right from the beginning. Our P-12 independent schools are built on a strong foundation of specialist teachers and allied health professionals who work in a collaborative, supporting environment to provide quality, focused education to classes of up to 6-8 autistic students.

“What keeps me coming back is knowing that I’ve helped somebody on their journey in life. It’s rewarding to see the change you can make not only to the individual, but also the family that supports them.”
