St George Hospital School

St George Hospital School is a unique educational institution situated in the Paediatric Ward of St George Hospital. This single classroom school focuses on providing a safe, caring, and stimulating environment for students who are hospitalised and require educational support. Catering to students from Kindergarten to Year 12 across both public and private schools, the school plays a vital role in ensuring continuity of education through close communication and cooperation with home schools.

The dedicated staff at St George Hospital School are experienced in managing a K-12 multi-stage and multi-disciplined educational setting. They collaborate with the St George Hospital Mental Health Team, nursing staff, doctors, and allied health professionals to deliver tailored, individualised support to students. Transition programs are specifically designed to assist students in reintegrating into their home schools following extended stays in the hospital.

In addition to traditional educational offerings, the school features modern resources such as laptops, software, and cameras for use by students in both the classroom and on the ward. St George Hospital School continuously enhances its staff's technological skills and expands its ICT resources to provide innovative programs for students. The support offered by the school is highly regarded by families and the hospital community, underlining its positive contribution to public education.

We provide educational support to students from Kindergarten to Year 12 who are inpatients at the hospital or who have experienced extended periods of disengagement from their census school, and who require comprehensive support for re-engagement and transition. St George Hospital School puts personalised student learning and wellbeing needs as the focal point to support the continuity of learning for all students in an inclusive and supportive environment.
