Galilee School

Communities@Work’s Galilee School is a registered, independent secondary school for whom the mainstream schooling environment struggles to deliver positive learning outcomes. Our specialist teachers support the young people through targeted evidence-based interventions.

We developed a Trauma Informed – Positive Behaviour Support (TI-PBS) framework that supports students with complex and challenging behaviours to successfully access their education.

We enable young people to engage in the social and economic life of their community by building understanding, resilience, health, life skills and self-efficacy.

The school delivers the Australian Curriculum for years 7-10, focusing on empowering students to develop long-term resilience and resourcefulness. While meeting the demands of the Australian Curriculum, students also develop interpersonal and life skills.

Teacher to student ratios of 5:1 and flexible indoor and outdoor learning environments encourage modern, evidence-based teaching strategies that respond to individual learning needs. Individual Learning Plans are developed and delivered via a flexible support model that is client-centred, strengths based, relationship driven and restorative.
