We are seeking to establish a pool of Student Support Officers for permanent and fixed-term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2027 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.

Carson Street School is Western Australia’s only Education Support Primary School, providing a highly specialised and supportive learning environment for early childhood and primary-aged students with moderate, severe and profound multiple disabilities. Many students also have complex medical, sensory and communication needs, and benefit from highly individualised programs, specialist teaching, assistive technology and dedicated adult support throughout the school day. Learning is tailored to each student’s strengths, needs and goals, with a strong focus on participation, independence, communication and quality of life. Students remain at the school until the year they turn 11.

The school’s specialist Conductive Education program attracts families from across the metropolitan area. Communication is central to learning at Carson Street School, with students supported to express themselves through a range of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) approaches, including Pragmatic Organisation Dynamic Display (PODD). The school is committed to creating meaningful opportunities for every student to connect, communicate, learn and thrive.
