Get to know our school staff. We're all here to help.
Mary Brooksbank School is staffed by qualified teachers and School Learning Support Officers (SLSOs), who are committed to the provision of quality educational programs and ongoing professional learning.
All staff are involved in ongoing training and development to ensure quality teaching and learning across the school.
We have 17 classroom teachers (including 4 Assistant Principals) and each class has a fulltime SLSO to support the educational programs. All teachers have formal teaching qualifications, with many having post graduate qualifications in special education. All SLSOs have training in health care procedures and participate in all mandatory training at the school. We have a highly skilled and committed team of teachers and our SLSOs have outstanding skills in supporting the complex needs of many of our students. We are committed to team work and strengthening links with our parents and broader community members.
Our professional, university-educated teachers and SLSOs encourage students to develop a love of learning and a desire to succeed. They maintain the highest integrity and concern for your child’s wellbeing.
A dedicated group of volunteers assist in all facets of the school and they are greatly appreciated. The school staff are committed to achieving outstanding outcomes for all students with assistance of families and volunteers.
The principal is responsible for the educational leadership and management of our school. If you would like to speak to the principal, please contact us to make an appointment.
Our school administrative staff can answer inquiries or direct you to the appropriate staff member for help.
