At Vienna Woods State School, we acknowledge the close relationship
between a student's learning and their well-being, sense of community,
unique needs, and participation in relevant, purposeful learning
experiences. These are essential to successful learning and cannot be
separated from the curriculum or pedagogical practices. To improve
student learning outcomes, we integrate whole school processes in
Positive Behaviour for Learning, inclusive education practices, wellbeing
initiatives, and evidence-based, high impact active teaching practices that
put the learner first as a fundamental part of daily classroom instruction.
We recognise that individual student needs must be understood and met
for a child to be ‘ready to learn’ and to succeed, irrespective of
circumstances or capability. Consistent high levels of student
achievement and engagement demonstrate our capacity to meet the
diverse needs and interests of our students through:
Curious Minds
Consistent school wide curriculum programs, expert teaching teams and
student expectations, developed from the Australian Curriculum, and
incorporate evidence based best practice pedagogy are focused on
individualised student learning needs. An expert staff focused on
continual improvement and committed to providing the best
opportunities, programs and processes for every member of the school
community.
Strong Character
A school wide focus on providing all students with an engaging and
motivating educational program that is targeted and focused on individual
learning needs and based on community, student and teacher interests
and capabilities.
Connected Community
Through partnerships and links with the local community, the school aims
to create engaged, productive community members who possess strong
values for life, individual potential, and a strong will to succeed.
