Role description


This is a 12 month fixed term, part-time (0.8 FTE) position commencing Term 1, 2027 with possible extension and/or permanency

Burbridge School is situated 15 km north of Perth in the suburb of Koondoola and provides individualised diverse and innovative learning programs for students in Kindergarten to Year 12. We cater for students with moderate to severe disabilities and complex, multifaceted support needs. These may include severe autism, intellectual disability, behavioural challenges, physical disabilities, sensory impairments, and significant medical needs, requiring staff who are skilled, compassionate, and committed to inclusive education. All students experience communication difficulties, with most being Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users. Assistive technologies and intensive adult support are key components of our individualised teaching and learning programs.

Our small class sizes, specialist teachers and education assistants provide targeted support through a differentiated curriculum aligned with the WA Curriculum and ABLEWA. Individual Education Plans are developed collaboratively with families to meet each student’s needs and goals.

Our students benefit from purpose-built, specialist facilities including a hydrotherapy pool, gymnasium, enterprise gardens, library, medical room, kitchen with both regular and switch adapted appliances, light and dark multi-sensory room, and a life skills centre. These facilities assist in inspiring a meaningful and positive future for the students to develop as confident and competent adults.
