Welcome to Port Lincoln Special School
Port Lincoln Special School provides quality education programs for students from Reception to Year 13, who have an intellectual disability. Some students may also have additional impairments – sensory, physical or autism.
The school provides a supportive, caring and collaborative teaching and learning environment, and is committed to fostering independence in each student: enabling them to have the capacity to engage in a positive and productive life.

Families of students in special schools hold a wealth of knowledge and insights that can revolutionise education for all. Their lived experiences reveal practical ideas that can bridge gaps, build understanding, and promote meaningful inclusion in mainstream schools.
From adaptive teaching strategies that address diverse learning needs to fostering deeper empathy and awareness, the lessons learned in special education settings have the potential to create classrooms where every child feels valued and supported.
1. What can your school learn from these transformative insights?
2. How can we take the best of special education practices and apply them to mainstream education?
Let’s start a conversation and share ideas for building inclusive environments across all schools.

This year Variety SA put out the call to PLSS families offering 10 free lessons with Riding for the Disabled Port Lincoln Centre. The students that participated in the trial had great fun and success! On Tuesday participating students received a medallion for their efforts! Thanks variety and RDA for giving our students the opportunity to have a go! ❤️🤍
On Wednesday students were visited by members of the 🩵💙One Heart Church💙🩵. Their congregation have generously gifted our students with toys and a Christmas pantry care package for families. It was smiles all round! Thanks again One Heart for including our school and students in your toy drive! 🎄🎅🏼
Thank you One Heart Church much appreciated.
