About The Organisation
Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA) Flexible Schools Ltd currently educates over 2,500 young people in 21 Flexible Learning Schools (12 based in Queensland and 9 other schools across Australia) and two Special Education Services Schools in NSW, with approximately 800 staff nationally. We're excited to share that the Darwin campus of St Joseph's Catholic Flexible School is preparing to open its doors, offering a new opportunity for Young People in the Northern Territory.
Our schools provide a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment for Young People who have experienced barriers to education. Here at Flexis, we focus on helping students reconnect with learning, build confidence, and feel part of a caring community.
As part of the national EREA Flexible Schools network, and building on the success of our Alice Springs campus, Darwin will offer relationship-based, trauma-informed education that meets each student where they are.
