About The BUSY School The BUSY School is part of The BUSY Group, a not-for-profit organisation with 45 years of experience as a community partner providing employment services, vocational education and training, apprenticeships, mentoring, NDIS, disability employment support, and allied health services. The BUSY Group is expanding its network of Special Assistance Schools into Tasmania, South Australia, and the Australian Capital Territory.

We prioritise small class sizes, personalised support, and wellbeing programmes to help students overcome barriers to learning. Our goal is that every graduate progresses into meaningful employment, further training, or tertiary education, creating positive change for themselves and their communities. Students work towards their final school certificate through individualised learning plans, while also accessing nationally recognised Vocational Education and Training courses aligned to career goals. This approach provides a head start into employment or further study upon graduation, supported by career planning, work readiness programmes, and school‑based apprenticeship or traineeship opportunities.
