Positive Relationships

We firmly believe that the best learning outcomes are grounded in positive relationships between students, staff and families.

 

Our Learning Mentor program provides students with a single contact point.Ìý

We are a large school with a small school approach. Students are at the centre of our decision making, and as our College continues to grow, so does our support network.Ìý

School Wide Positive Behaviour Supports (SWPBS)

We believe that a positive, safe and supportive learning culture begins with a clear and visible framework.

 

As a SWPBS school we explicitly teach and encourage appropriate behaviours to replace undesired behaviours. We build effective environments using a data informed and evidence based approach.Ìý

This evidence approach has been used to position our recently revised Mobile Phone policy, where removing phones during the school hours has had a positive impact on socialisation and learning.

Inclusive Community

At 515Ö±²¥, every staff member is an educator, and every family is part of a student’s learning journey.

 

We see our College as much more than students and teachers. Our College is not only welcoming to families of all backgrounds; we actively encourage the participation of families in College life.Ìý

Our Principal and Deputy Principals conduct Learning Walks every term. Through these popular on-site sessions, parents and educators gain insight into our broader strategic direction – what we do, and why – as well as what families can do to further engage in the learning of their child at home.Ìý
