About this school, from public sources
Public online sources describe Wugularr School as a small government school in the remote community of Wugularr (Beswick), south-east of Katherine in the Northern Territory. It serves students from transition through to year 12 and runs the Families as First Teachers (FaFT) early-childhood program alongside its regular curriculum. The school has a low student-to-teacher ratio, reflecting its small remote-community enrolment, and is closely tied to the local Aboriginal community it serves.
Often praised
