Teacher - Education Support

The School

The Rockingham Beach Education Support Centre (ESC) community believes that all children can learn and develop skills across all curriculum areas. We recognise that the social, emotional, physical, and educational development of every child is best supported when parents, teachers, specialists and therapists work in partnership throughout the learning process.

Rockingham Beach ESC is known for its strong and inclusive school culture, with a clear focus on supporting and mentoring staff to ensure they reach their full professional potential.

Rockingham Beach ESC shares a site with Rockingham Beach Primary School. We currently have 70 students enrolled from Kindergarten to Year 6. The curriculum programs are enriched through a range of regular opportunities, including excursions, annual school camps, swimming lessons and horse-riding programs, which support students’ engagement and development across all areas.
