Why families choose us
A Strong Start for Every Child
At our school, we believe that every student deserves a welcoming and supportive beginning. Our comprehensive transition programs, Strong Start Initiative and playgroup sessions are designed to ease the journey into learning, ensuring children feel confident and excited from day one. We take the time to build meaningful relationships, so every student is known, valued and cared for.
Support and Connections for Every Family
We understand that strong support and good connections make a big difference in a child's learning journey. That's why we are dedicated to building close relationships with every family in our school community. Our team work closely with parents and carers to understand each child's unique needs and celebrate their achievements.
Growth in the Classroom, Community and Beyond
We believe that all students, regardless of background or personal circumstances, require access to learning programs that meet their learning needs and support to aspire to, and achieve, personal excellence. Our commitment to high expectations for all students includes high potential and gifted students. Achieving excellence for high potential and gifted students is underpinned by effective school environments including quality teaching, learning and leadership. Potential exists along a continuum, where differing degrees of potential require differing approaches and levels of adjustment and intervention.
Student Voice
At our school, we actively promote opportunities for our students to provide feedback to us on how, what and why they learn. Student voice allows our students to actively participate in decision-making at school on things which shape their educational experiences. Student voice is more than just students 'having a say' and 'being heard'. Our school values the perspectives and opinions of students and act on them in a way that genuinely shapes learning and decision-making at the school. Including student voice in decision making in our school: allow students and teacher to design solutions together, increases engagement in learning, builds connections and belonging, creates a positive environment and culture and develops personal and social capabilities.
"We really appreciate the supportive leadership and friendly staff who make Bletchington Public School feel so welcoming and connected. It is great to see our kids enjoying success in extracurriculars, with sporting achievements and performing arts opportunities that reflect their interests" — Nicole, a parent of Bletchington Public School
