Principal and staff profiles

Welcome from our Principal

Mr Neil Seaman, School Principal

I am proud of our school community with respectful, reciprocal relationships that achieve equity and excellence.

At Karcultaby Area School, our teachers know every student and provide flexible and adaptive learning environments.

Inclusive practices address individual needs, interest and capabilities, supporting students to thrive and prosper now and into the future. We foster agency – students can show initiative, embrace challenges, and persevere, developing the skills of life long learners.
