Jacana School for Autism

Welcome to Jacana School for Autism, located in the beautiful Jacana area of Australia. As the Principal, I am delighted to invite you to explore our website and learn more about the incredible opportunities we offer to our students.

At Jacana School for Autism, our main focus is on fostering resilience and independence in our students, empowering them to become active participants in their community. We believe in creating an inclusive environment where all students can thrive and reach their full potential.

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all our new families, and I assure you that your experience at Jacana School for Autism will be both enjoyable and rewarding. We believe in working together with our families to provide the best possible education and support for our students.

Our school actively encourages a student-centered approach, where students, parents/carers, and staff build positive relationships. We value treating everyone with fairness, courtesy, and empathy, even in challenging situations. Every individual is valued and respected, and we have a collective responsibility to promote inclusion and build positive relationships.

At Jacana School for Autism, we have three sub-schools: primary, middle, and secondary, each led by a dedicated leading teacher and supported by our leadership team. Most of our classrooms have eight students, one teacher, and two teacher aides. We also have selected larger classrooms led by two teachers.

We provide an education program that is tailored to meet the needs of each individual student, with differentiated learning in all core curriculum areas. Our goal is to ensure that every student receives the support and resources they need to succeed academically and personally.

But don't just take our word for it. Hear what one of our parents had to say: "I called Jacana and my husband and son came with me for the tour. We felt the magic immediately." This is the kind of experience we strive to create for all our families.

Thank you for considering Jacana School for Autism. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and working together to provide the best education and support for your child.
