Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Parry School, a caring and inclusive learning community in Tamworth where every student is known, valued and supported to thrive. We provide a safe and nurturing environment for young people with mental health, behavioural, social and emotional needs, helping them reconnect with learning and achieve meaningful success.
At Parry, education is personal. Our dedicated teachers, learning support staff and wellbeing team work together to deliver tailored programs that meet each student’s academic, social and emotional goals. Through small class sizes, strong relationships and structured support, students develop confidence, independence and resilience.
Learning at Parry extends beyond the classroom. Our programs blend academics with hands-on, real world learning across areas such as hospitality, agriculture, technology, art and sport. Students build practical skills that prepare them for future pathways, whether that’s returning to mainstream schooling, further education, training or employment.
We believe in strong partnerships with families, carers and community organisations. Together, we create a supportive network that encourages every student to build a sense of belonging, purpose and pride.
Join us at Parry School where every student’s story matters, and every achievement is a step forward toward a successful future.
Tina White, Principal of Parry School
