Beldon Education Support Centre (6057)



School Overview



The Beldon Education Support Centre (ESC) is a specialised primary school situated in the land of the Whaduk Nyoongar people, who have a rich history spanning at least 45,000 years. It operates independently but collaborates closely with Beldon Primary School, located on the south side of Ocean Reef Road.

Unlike traditional schools with catchment areas, Beldon ESC accepts students from neighbouring suburbs, and transportation assistance is available through the School Bus Service. The school's philosophy revolves around creating a nurturing, sensory-rich learning environment that encourages a child's sense of discovery, and confidence building, and supports self-expression and an excitement to learn.

Individualised programming is a cornerstone of their approach, ensuring that each student receives tailored education to meet their specific requirements. To facilitate this, the school employs a diverse and experienced team comprising special needs teachers, general primary teachers, allied professionals, a school chaplain, a school psychologist, consulting therapists, and school administrators. With a high staff-to-student ratio, all members of the school share a focus on the needs of the students. Collaboration is emphasised as essential for student success. The school's staff recognises the importance of collective professional efficacy in promoting quality teaching and learning outcomes. Moreover, they are committed to ensuring that every student's voice is heard and valued by all stakeholders.

The school's priority areas are referred to using our acronym RAISE. Reflective Practice, Accessible Learning Areas, Instructional Leadership, Social Inclusion and Empowered Education. Recognising the uniqueness of each student, Beldon ESC employs Person-Centred planning tools and focuses on individual strengths and aspirations in designing teaching programs. Our ethos, 'Aspire to go Beyond,' reflects the school's dedication to helping students realise their full potential and exceed expectations.
