It caters for students with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities, from Years 7 to 12.

Students have access to all school facilities and co-curricular activities.

TUITION OPPORTUNITIES
this goal, the program addresses the development of academic outcomes, social skills and independent living skills.
SOCIAL AND INDEPENDENT LIVING SKILLS Social and independent living skills outcomes are determined in close collaboration with each student’s family. Targeted skills are taught in context according to relevance and need. They are taught explicitly, modelled and practised at every relevant opportunity. There are many structured opportunities to practise social and independent living skills at events within and beyond the PLC community. Students take part in social lunches, camps, sporting events and the Live-in Program for the Senior girls.
