Position Information
Arranounbai School, located in Frenchs Forest, supports a diverse K–12 student population with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. Many students have additional needs including autism, sensory or physical disabilities, or complex behaviours. The school also has two K-2 Autism intervention classes which work using a unique four day-one day model incorporating collaboration with local mainstream schools. Enrolment is currently at 45 students, referred through a Regional Placement Panel.
We are committed to delivering high-quality, individualised education that fosters academic, social, physical, behavioural, and life skills development. Through Personalised Learning and Support Plans (PLSPs), students engage in relevant, meaningful learning experiences that promote independence and prepare them for post-school pathways.
Our strong focus on Functional Communication ensures every student can express themselves and make requests, supporting our goal for all students to be Happy, Relaxed and Engaged (HRE) and ready to learn.
Our vision is to empower each student to reach their full potential through engaging, supportive and innovative educational programs. We work in close partnership with families, external providers, and the wider community to ensure every student is known, valued and cared for—and nurtured to take ownership of their learning and progress. Visit the school website Arranounbai School.
