School Policies and Procedures

Our school uses the department's School Community Charter to ensure all of our communication is collaborative and respectful.

As well as following the department’s operational policies, we have developed frameworks for our students in line with our school’s values and commitments.

Extended Leave Procedure

For absences of 11 days or more, parents/carers are required to complete an extended leave form via School Bytes which is submitted to the Principal.

Visit the NSW Department of Education’s policy library for all current operational policies.

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.
