Black Mountain School (BMS) is a centre of excellence in the field of special education. We are a specialist secondary school (years 7 - 12) for students with moderate to severe intellectual disability (MSID). We provide a functional curriculum to support students to reach their maximum potential and independence.
We deliver a quality, individualised education providing social, life and work skills that facilitate students' participation in a full and satisfying post-school life.
We have close to 110 students each year, all with MSID and many with additional diagnoses such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), physical disability, communication difficulties and/or complex medical conditions.
We offer many exciting and innovative programs to support every student to reach their optimum post-school life potential.
PaperChange is a social enterprise which combines social and environmental accountability. This program equips students with a range of work skills to further their post-school options. These include work skills for life, that would be required in any work place, and work skills specific to the industrial arts.
