Cromehurst School

Cromehurst School provides a specialised education for students with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. The school is dedicated to developing student independence through tailored educational programs designed to extend academic skills and enhance communication abilities. Collaboration with parents and stakeholders is a cornerstone of the school's approach, ensuring that each student's needs are met effectively.

Educational Programs

Cromehurst's educational strategy is built around individual education and transition plans that align with key learning areas. The school actively promotes integration opportunities across all levels of student development. One of its hallmark initiatives is the Willoughby Integration Program, which has successfully operated for over twenty years and received the Director General's School Achievement Award. Recently, a similar program was introduced for younger students in partnership with Killara Public School.

Transition and Community Involvement

Preparing students for a smooth transition into their post-school environment is a high priority at Cromehurst. The school features programs like travel training and work experience, which equip students with the necessary skills to become valued members of their communities after graduation. Cromehurst School believes in the importance of community partnerships, with an emphasis on comprehensive support for families and the students’ wellbeing.

Commitment to Facilities

Recent upgrades to the school include modern classrooms and improved access, enhancing the learning environment for students with complex learning needs. These developments reflect the school’s commitment to providing quality educational experiences tailored to its students’ unique requirements.

We recognise the importance of community and believe education is built on the successful partnership between our school and our families.
