Maryborough Special School
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Maryborough Special School provides quality educational experiences for students with special needs from 5 – 18 years of age. We have a clear focus on lifelong learning outcomes for students underpinned by an environment of positive behaviour support. Central to the students’ learning are the relationships among students, teachers, parents/carers and the community.
Our core business is providing a learning experience for students in a challenging, caring environment to achieve system-wide and school-based learning outcomes and prepare for flexible and adaptive life pathways. This will be achieved by:
• Creating a safe, supportive and tolerant environment for students
• Preparing young people to be active and reflective citizens
• Developing the skills and desire for lifelong learning in students
• Supporting students to become active in community, economic and political life
• Building students’ confidence in their relationships with others within their own community
