Founded in 1936, the St George’s School is currently operated by Curro.

Situated in the St George’s Park area, the new Bridge School campus will have capacity for 450 students and provide assisted learning, tailored to the individual needs of neurodivergent children.

“This acquisition responds to growing demand for specialised schooling and flows from our commitment to provide education of the highest quality for every student,” said Advtech Group CEO Geoff Whyte.

Starting in 2027, Advtech aims to enhance the site’s existing academic, cultural and sporting facilities, adding specialist learning and therapy spaces to elevate the student experience and maximise academic outcomes.

Teachers with expertise in neurodivergent learning will also be recruited or relocated to staff the school. The campus will open officially as The Bridge St George’s in January 2028.
