Who are we?
Peninsula College is a purpose-built school, located in a beautiful bush setting in Dromana, that caters for students with an intellectual disability from Prep to Yr 12. We pride ourselves on our close, caring community, neuro-affirming inclusive practise and flexible approach to supporting each child’s unique learning journey. Our vision is for our students to be happy, confident and resilient learners, reaching optimal independence through individualised learning pathways.
What do we offer?
Our expert staff deliver an engaging and personalised learning program that is drawn from the Victorian Curriculum and Victorian Pathways Certificate. Each child has an Individual Education Plan, developed closely with families and Allied Health professionals, that set learning goals focussing on communication, organisation, regulation and engagement in education.
We consistently implement a multi-tiered system of supports, informed by our Allied Health team and the latest educational research, to ensure all students can access personalised learning and reach their full potential.
Enrolment eligibility:
A child must have a diagnosed Intellectual Disability, a Full Scale IQ of 70 or below and an Adaptive Behaviour Composite score of 70 or below. Peninsula College can refer a student for a Prep Entry cognitive assessment at no cost to prospective parents.
