Albury Public School aims to foster an inclusive learning culture where individual student needs are identified through the analysis of systematic and reliable data. Through a shared commitment to wellbeing, practices are embedded to ensure that every student is known, valued and cared for. A strong, purposeful leadership of reflective practice will continue to sustain and grow dynamic and responsive approaches to teaching and learning to maximise student engagement for the attainment of expected growth. The school is currently embarking on a school improvement journey, informed by an in-depth situational analysis, through multi-dimensional and interrelated focuses on student growth and attainment, wellbeing and a strong leadership of reflective practice. Student wellbeing and readiness for learning are built on Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL), Trauma informed practice and further informed by research such as Curiosity and Powerful Learning and What works best: 2020 update (CESE).
