Making the Difference

Modbury Special School is one of the largest Special School sites in South Australia. We recognise that each child has their own individual needs, abilities and strengths. In every classroom the learning environment and curriculum are personalised to suit each child. Individualised planning incorporates sensory regulation, Positive Behaviour Intervention Supports (PBIS), communication strategies and differentiation of curriculum.
