Enrolling in Outpost

Eligibility

The Outpost school support program is designed for hearing impaired children with a permanent hearing loss or chronic middle ear deafness. Enrolment in the Outpost program can occur at any time throughout the year. Placements will depend on availability within the integrating schools. It is the responsibility of families to apply for enrolment in the mainstream school.

For more information about your child’s eligibility and appropriateness for this program, please contact our Family Liaison Officer on (08) 9387 9888 or email us.

Fees and Charges

There is a $150 enrolment fee for entry into the Outpost program.

This is a one time only fee. There are no ongoing costs. Please note that families will be required to meet all financial obligations to the enrolling mainstream school. Parents are requested to promptly advise the Family Liaison Officer of any change to contact details, including street address, email address and telephone numbers.
