**Position Information**:
Stewart House School is a NSW Department of Education School for Specific Purpose. The school works collaboratively with the Stewart House Charity and its partners: NSW Health, Macquarie University, the University of New South Wales, and Teachers Health to deliver a comprehensive program that includes an education and residential program. During their stay, students have access to dental, optical and auditory assessments. The residential component of the program includes overnight and weekend accommodation and activities for students which are the responsibility of employees of the Stewart House Charity, not Department of Education staff.

Stewart House School aims to improve the wellbeing of every student through the provision of a safe and supporting environment and the delivery of an evidence based, flexible education program that is responsive to individual needs. The school provides a short-term intensive, educational wellbeing program for government school children in years 2 to 9. Each year, approximately 1700 students, from all areas of NSW and the ACT, attend Stewart House School from Monday to Friday as part of the twelve-day residential program. Thirty per cent of the student cohort identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander.

The student cohort may include those experiencing economic hardship, geographic isolation and/or a recent crisis. Empowering students to develop skills and strategies that support their own wellbeing is at the core of the school’s program. Consultation and collaboration with the local Gawura AECG assists the school to embed Aboriginal histories, culture and understandings in the program.
