Our Commitment
Mount Hawthorn Education Support Centre has a deep commitment to providing a safe and engaging learning environment, that is highly responsive to the diverse needs and cultural backgrounds of our students. We are committed to leveraging partnerships and employing best practice principles to lay the foundation for a successful future for every student.
“…inclusion is where everyone is treated equally and has an active role in society. Hence, an inclusive society for people with disabilities is one where they: are respected; have equal access to services and facilities, and; are provided the same opportunities as non-disabled Australians.” – Disability Royal Commission 2022
