OUR SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY
At Spensley Street Primary School we promote and sustain an inclusive, inspirational and robust community of students, staff, parents and carers. We take a whole-school approach to ensuring the wellbeing of our community.
We provide diverse, challenging and child-centred learning programs to develop successful, lifelong learners. The educational, social, emotional and physical needs of the whole child are of primary importance and we are committed to an assessment program that values progress and achievement in all these areas.
Our vision of a successful learner is one who is: respectful, principled, caring, thoughtful, generative, industrious, knowledgeable, courageous, a risk taker and an effective communicator.
We want our students to develop a strong sense of social justice, and to acquire the knowledge, skills and confidence to think critically about their world.
WHAT WE DO
We provide our students with stimulating, targeted and challenging learning opportunities to ensure they become successful, confident learners with a strong sense of self.
We foster a strong, supportive community for our families.
We value our staff and recognise their importance, in partnership with families, in supporting students to fully realise their learning potential.
We are committed to open, democratic governance that recognises the rights of everyone in our community to participate in decision-making at Spensley Street.
