Welcome from our Principal
Penrith Valley School (PVS) is a school for specific purposes (SSP) located at Werrington. Our school supports students with complex emotional and behavioural needs in a highly structured environment.
We are committed to providing an inclusive school that promotes the wellbeing and success for all while planning for the future. The students and staff of PVS acknowledge the traditional custodians of the Dharug land and pay our respects to elders past present and emerging.
PVS promotes the core values of students being Safe, Responsible Learners who learn through a differentiated curriculum that addresses the individual learning needs of each student. Our school prioritises working in partnership with our families to meet each individual student’s needs and learning goals.
