Teacher Special/Inclusive Education - West Wyalong Public School

.

West Wyalong Public School sits on the lands of the Wiradjuri people, situated in the town of West Wyalong, which is the major town in the Bland Shire, in the Riverina Region of NSW. There are 185 students enrolled this year, which includes 25 Aboriginal and 12 EAL/D students.

Our school Strategic Improvement Plan includes a focus on improving literacy and numeracy results across the school. To enable this, an evidence-based K –6 continuum of learning for literacy and numeracy is used. This is supported by evidence-based approaches to professional learning that improve teacher practice and increase teacher capacity. In addition, deeper collaboration across the school community and increased involvement in the school by the community, with a focus of high expectations will improve student learning outcomes.

Our school has many extra-curriculum opportunities through sport, music, cultural experiences, excursions, leadership initiatives and performances. A whole school wellbeing program has been implemented, to provide extra support for individual student's needs. 

Approval to teach special education and/or experience teaching students with autism, behavioural difficulties and mild intellect disability.
