Welcome to Our School

Sydney Distance Education Primary School is a global leader in providing high quality and innovative distance education to primary school students. We enrol NSW students from public and independent schools who are temporarily unable to attend their local school for a variety of circumstances. Our differentiated and adaptable approach to learning makes the school ideal for families travelling in Australia and around the world. The SDEPS teaching program provides students with an excellent opportunity to enhance their education during their extended absence. Our highly qualified teachers cater for all students’ learning needs through personalised learning programs. We create highly engaging and innovative learning materials aligned to NESA Syllabuses. Students are provided with individualised support, as well as given opportunities for collaboration through our online lessons and peer to peer interaction. 

Please note!

The Domestic Traveller Category is now open as per the instructions of the NSW Department of Education.  Applications will now be accepted and processed for enrolments commencing in 2021. Overseas Travel​lers will need to seek Commonwealth approval to travel prior to seeking enrolment in this category.  We apologise for any inconvenience that may be caused.

Testimonials

Parent/carer - Year 5
 
My son took his ICAS in English and Mathematics last term and his results in English were really good. He scored a distinction and the report said he was among the top 2% of Year 5 participants in Australia. I wanted to thank you and his teachers for helping him achieve that. He was completely new to the Australian schooling system when he started his learning at SDEPS and had he not had help and guidance from you, he wouldn't have been able to do this well. You helped him grow in confidence and skills, and he wanted to share his moment of joy with you.  As you probably realized, he is quite the fan of his Yr 5 SDEPS teacher!
