About our school

Royal Far West School (RFWS) is a NSW public school providing educational services to the clients of the Royal Far West who come with a range of developmental, learning and behavioural difficulties. 

Each year we work with over 1500 students aged 3-18, all from country NSW and often from remote areas of the state.  We work closely with our students, families and schools and Royal Far West to ensure that our students are able to access all possible supports and programs when they return to their home schools.

SWAY (Sounds, Words, Aboriginal Language and Yarning) is an oral language and early literacy program based on local Aboriginal language and yarns within the early learning environment. The SWAY team is part of the Royal Far West School.

The NSW Centre for Effective Reading (CER), Manly hub is based at Royal Far West School. The CER aims to strengthen services to students with complex reading difficulties in rural and remote NSW. The other hubs are based in Wagga Wagga, Dubbo and Westmead.
