Mount Victoria Public School (MVPS) is a small school situated at the western extremity of the Blue Mountains. The enrolment numbers for this year are 49 and for 2023 they are currently 58. The school is committed to providing educational excellence for students who are drawn from diverse backgrounds within the small local village, and the surrounding semi-rural areas. The school is recognised for its positive environment where staff collaborate, consistently embedding innovative practices and high student expectations.
The Darug and Gundungurra people, the traditional custodians of the community, have a strong representation and presence in the school.
There are three composite classes across the school. Teachers are committed to utilising high impact teaching strategies and ongoing assessment to ensure each child has their learning needs identified and met. There are highly qualified School Learning Support Officers on staff. These additional support staff ensure students and teachers are supported in individualised and small group intensive programs.
MVPS is a member of the Upper Blue Mountains Learning Community. We collaborate with other local schools to ensure we provide highly effective educational programs in literacy and numeracy as well as extracurricular activities. These include debating, the innovative use of technologies and sporting opportunities. The school community and staff highly value the creative arts, providing exceptional programs in these areas. Students engage in weekly music lessons as well as drama and visual art activities. The Multi-catagorical class is new to Mount Victoria Public School in 2023 and will be a valued part of our inclusive education priority
