Special Education Faculty

In the Special Education Faculty (SEF) at East Hills Boys High School, staff strive to deliver a mainstream syllabus, where possible, to our students. As a result, the curriculum is modified where necessary, and delivered in a safe, nurturing environment.

Staff and SLSO’s:

• Deliver modified curriculum to your children
• Work towards relevant stage/age outcomes
• Develop and nurture independent life skills
• Provide a safe learning environment for your children
• Identify and develop strategies to achieve individual social, academic and personal goals
•  Create opportunities for students to strive and excel through individualised learning

We are proud to offer a variety of programs that supplement daily learning, and further develop students’ life skills, particularly working towards independent living and self regulation of emotions.
