Sir David Brand School is a dynamic school that caters for students with disability aged from 4 – 18 years. Our students’ special needs range from those with severe disabilities to students who are able to participate in functional life skills programs. Our programs are run at school and in the community. Programs are primarily centred on communication, mobility and self-care. We provide specialist programs for students with autism. Students with autism represent around half of our total enrolments.
Our Mission
To develop the individual, intellectual, social, emotional, creative and physical skills of our students to maximise their independence and contribution to the community.
