Emerson School is a specialist school that provides a dynamic range of programs for primary and secondary students with mild intellectual processing disabilities.
It is a school with a reputation for providing quality services to a region that includes Rowville in the north, Cranbourne in the south, Mulgrave/Springvale in the west and Bunyip/Pakenham in the east.
Since opening its doors in 1973, Emerson School has grown to be one of the largest specialist schools in Victoria with over 1500 plus students having participated in Emerson’s programs since its beginning.
The unique quality of the curriculum at Emerson School is the way in which the major learning areas are applied to meet the individual needs of every student. The broad range of curricular programs address the educational, therapeutic, developmental and pre-vocational needs of all students. The learning program is strengthened by a strong co-operative bond that exists between parents, students and staff. Without this co-operation, programs would not reach their full potential.
