Welcome to St Paul's College


St Paul's College is a Catholic specialist school in Balwyn where children and young people with intellectual disability are supported to feel confident, capable, and ready to grow.  

Founded in 1957 and now located on a modern, purpose-built campus, we provide individualised education from Prep to Year 12 in small classes with an exceptional staff-to-student ratio. Every child is known, valued, and supported by a dedicated team of teachers, Learning Support Officers, and allied health professionals. 
We focus on each student's strengths, creating pathways that support growth, independence, and lifelong learning. 

Belong. Grow. Discover. Achieve.
