Our policies and reports

Our policies and reports help families understand how our school works. Our annual report and school plan show what we’ve done and how we’re improving each year.  Our policies address attendance, absences, behaviour, uniform and how we respond to your concerns.

Annual school report

Each year, we share our progress in the annual school report. It gives families a clear picture of how our school is performing and how we’re supporting every student’s success. The report reflects our commitment to openness, accountability and continuous improvement.

The report includes:

• what we’re doing well and where we’re improving
• student achievement and academic progress
• our school vision and goals
• key highlights and milestones
• challenges we’ve faced and how we’re addressing them.

School excellence plan

Our school excellence plan (SEP) is a working document that shows our priorities in learning, teaching and leading. It explains our focus areas for improvement and how we plan to get there. We write our SEP with help from our school community so it reflects our shared priorities.

School behaviour support and management plan

Winston Hills Public School supports students to create teaching and learning environments that enable them to be healthy, happy, engaged and successful. Wellbeing in our school is driven by the themes of Connect, Succeed and Thrive.  The following policies have been put in place in the best interests of our students.

Wellbeing Policy

Anti-bullying Policy

Winston Hills Public School is committed to explicitly teaching and modelling positive behaviour and to supporting all students to be engaged with their learning.

Our goal is to inspire every child to participate positively in the school community and beyond. We focus on promoting excellence, opportunity and success for every student, every day. We value and strive to develop safe, respectful learners in a caring learning community.

Principles of positive behaviour support, trauma-informed practice, inclusive practice, and social emotional learning underpin our daily practice. High expectations for student behaviour are established and maintained through effective role modelling, explicit teaching, and planned responses.

Winston Hills Public School’s Strategic Improvement Plan has prioritised wellbeing with a focus on all students connecting, succeeding and thriving. This is underpinned by a multi-tiered approach to learning and wellbeing.

With the commitment of the whole school, Winston Hills Public School has embedded the Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) evidence-based framework to support social, emotional, behavioural and academic outcomes for students.

The success of the PBL program has been supported by a common vision, language and a clear expectation of students and staff. Tier 1 and Tier 2 committees regularly meet to collect and review data to support future school directions. Expectations are explicitly taught to students and positive behaviour is celebrated through our rewards systems.
