Special Education Teacher-Young North Public School
Young North Public School (300 students) is committed to the delivery of excellence in student learning programs for all students in a culture that fosters respect, responsibility and empathy. Our school aims to develop high quality future focused learners and citizens. Young North Public School is located in a rural setting approximately 2.0 hours from Canberra, Wagga and Orange. Our school caters for students from a range of socioeconomic backgrounds and cultures with a significant population of Indigenous students (13%). The school has a dedicated and diverse staff who strive to ensure they maintain high professional standards and deliver quality learning to their students. The school is supported by the parents and broader community and has experienced growing student enrolments over the past four years due to community engagement and trust. In 2018, a third support class was established. Young North Public school is also recognised regionally as a lighthouse school for its strong PBL systems and interventions. The school has recently made the commitment to the pedagogy of Visible Learning and Trauma Informed Practice and will continue to have a strong emphasis on these principles over the next strategic planning cycle. As an Early Action for Success school, Young North has a full time Instructional Leader which has enabled strong professional development for staff in literacy and numeracy.
