Whole School Expectations


Wooranna Park Primary School recognises the importance of the partnership between schools and parents/carers to support student learning, engagement and wellbeing. We share a commitment to, and a responsibility for, ensuring inclusive, safe and orderly environments for children and young people.


This Statement of Values sets out our behavioural expectations of all members in this school community, including the Principal, all school staff, parents, carers, students and visitors. It respects the diversity of individuals in our school community and addresses the shared responsibilities of all members in building safe and respectful school communities.


Discrimination, sexual and other forms of harassment, bullying, violence, aggression and threatening behaviour are unacceptable and will not be tolerated in this school.


Our Statement of Values acknowledges that parents, carers and school staff are strongly motivated to do their best for every child. Everyone has the right to differing opinions and views and to raise concerns, as long as we do this respectfully as a community working together.

 

As Staff, We:

  • Model positive behaviour to students consistent with the standards of our profession.
  • Proactively engage with parents/carers about student outcomes.
  • Work with parents/carers to understand the needs of each student and, where necessary, adapt the learning environment accordingly.
  • Work collaboratively with parents/carers to improve learning and wellbeing outcomes for students with additional needs.
  • Communicate with the Principal and school leaders in the event we anticipate or face any tension or challenging behaviours from parents/carers.
