Edgeware School is located in Hurlstone Park approximately 12km from the Sydney CBD. The school caters for 35 students in Years 7-12 with a diagnosed Emotional Disturbance who demonstrate a range of highly challenging behaviours. The program at Edgeware supports and consults with both schools and the wider community. It provides students with the opportunity to develop to their maximum potential, be in a safe and supportive school environment and participate in individual education programs which address their academic, behavioural and social goals. We make careful decisions to provide learning equity for every student to ensure their individual learning potential is being achieved. Teachers, community and students work in partnership to ensure every student is known, valued and cared for. Edgeware completed the External Validation process in 2020 and has used the results of this process to drive the current Strategic Improvement Plan. Along with intended Literacy and Numeracy improvements a key focus of this plan is the enhancement of data-informed teaching practices, with an emphasis on data skills and use.
