Special Needs Unit

The Special Needs Unit was established in 1990.  It provides programmes of learning for ORRS funded students.

We aim to help students:

• with programmes catered to meet individual needs in the Special Needs Unit
• by providing support in mainstreamed class placements

Students can:

• have individual needs met with appropriate support
• work in a warm, friendly environment
• learn life skills
• join in all facets of school life, including House and sporting activities
• participate in Transition to Work programmes

Parents can:

• be an integral part of the goal setting team at IEP meetings
• be assured that students' learning needs will be met
• know that their child will be included and supported in all areas of their learning and development
