More special options places for students with disability

More special options places for students with disability

A further 154 places in special options (disability units/special classes) will be created for children and young people with disability over the next 2 years.

A consultation process is underway to select the preschools and schools that will offer these options. The placement process and eligibility criteria for placing a child/young person in a special option has not changed. If you need more information, contact your local school or preschool.

The state government is also introducing a new $3.2m statewide service available to all school sectors to manage complex and challenging behaviours through consultation and intervention, with health support planning for families.

The initiative is part of the state government’s new Public Education Action Plan: Your Child, Their School, Our Future.
