The school is PBL school, implementing four core values of being, “On Track”. The school expectations matrix was developed and communicated to the school community. Teachers have developed and teach lessons to our students to ensure that expectations are understood. 
As an Early Action for Success school, additional resources have been allocated that enable the school to provide tiered interventions that focus on literacy and numeracy outcomes for all student in Kindergarten to Year 6. L3 is being implemented across K-2 classes and Daily Five is being implemented across all 3-6 classes. There is a strong emphasis on these programs across the school, with staff receiving regular professional learning, coaching and mentoring in delivery of these programs.
Our 2018-2020 School Plan is for students at Guildford West Public School K-6 to think critically, communicate clearly, embrace culture, develop creativity, utilise connectivity, work collaboratively to become informed global citizens. Classes and teachers embed technology throughout teaching and learning programs utilising the Department's GSuite. We aim to create a stimulating and flourishing school community, supported by a positive collaborative culture.
