Special Education Programs

About Us

Welcome to Aspect Macarthur School. We offer a warm, welcoming and supportive learning environment for students on the autism spectrum. Our school caters for over 100 students across the Macarthur region and the Northern NSW Regional areas. The school has an administrative base at Cobbitty which has six Infants and Primary classes. The school also has satellite classes located at Holsworthy, Minto, Campbelltown, West Hoxton, and Northern Rivers within the NSW Department of Education and Catholic Schools. Uniquely, Aspect Macarthur also has a main site campus in Coffs Harbour. This vast geographical spread means that relationships and partnerships are key priorities for staff and students.

The school has proudly been operating since 2010 and uses the Aspect Comprehensive Approach to provide individualised education programs. These programs understand, engage and celebrate the strengths, interests and aspirations of students on the autism spectrum. Our staff are committed to continual improvement and value the importance of positive home/ school relationships. We work closely with students and their families to develop confidence and skills that will support transition to less specialised settings and inclusion into a student’s local community in the future.
