About the business
Arethusa College is an independent, co-educational school catering for students requiring an alternative to mainstream schooling. We are accredited as a Special Assistance School with campuses located across SE Queensland.
We believe in providing an alternate approach to education for students where previous schooling in a mainstream setting has not been successful due to social, emotional, physical, educational, family or situational difficulties. The College provides education which is innovative and meets the needs of each student, some of whom have learning difficulties and disabilities.
At Arethusa College we Believe, Expect and Celebrateas we see our students move towards achieving their full potential. Our College prides itself on promoting individual wellbeing and support for all in our community. The College acknowledges that quality education only exists where there are quality educators, and therefore values the contributions made by our staff. Our staff promote self-discipline, believing that the responsibility to change the future lies within the individual and is not found merely inside educational policy or applying unfair discipline.
