School excellence plan

^{We have developed a School Excellence Plan (SEP) in consultation with our community, identifying student outcomes and connected to a budget.}

^{The School Excellence Framework (SEF) underpins our school planning and reporting approach. The framework provides a clear description of the key elements of high-quality practice across learning, teaching and leading.}

^{The SEP is a working document that details the steps our school will take to improve learning outcomes, and the achievement and growth of all students. To ensure continuous improvement, the SEP reflects where our school is at and how it will further improve learning, teaching and leading.}

^{It demonstrates our alignment and our commitment to excellence as part of public education in NSW to ensure a profound difference to the ongoing growth and development of our students.}

^{The school planning process has involved extensive review of systems; practices and strategies in place in the school; survey responses from students; forum discussions with staff and parents; stage interviews with students; collaborative professional dialogue and discussion; together with individual and collective personal interviews with the parent body. The opportunity to take part in forum discussions and interact in interview was widely provided to the community through open invitation.}

_{^{Attendance and absences}}

_{Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options. In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.
