Ramlegh Park Primary School places a strong emphasis on Literacy and Numeracy with specialist subjects in Physical Education, Outdoor Education, The Arts, STEM and integrates AUSLAN as our language.

Student wellbeing is supported using School Wide Positive Behaviours and the 6 Competencies of learning (Character, Citizenship, Communication, Critical Thinking, Creative Thinking and Collaboration) which will be woven through all aspects of school life. Students use the Zones of Regulation to assist with expressing their feelings and developing strategies for the behaviours.

Overarching all aspects will be a culture of PLC with an expectation that all stakeholders will learn together for full implementation of a professional learning community approach. Integrated planning and delivery, reflecting on the impact of teaching practice, professional interaction and activation of student voice using evidence-based, high impact teaching strategies are all central to the educational vision.
