Learning
At our school, we teach the NSW curriculum and and provide a wide range of subjects to support every student’s learning journey. We recognise that strong skills in literacy and numeracy form the foundation for success in both learning and everyday life.
Our dedicated teachers use proven, effective strategies to help students reach their goals and achieve their personal best.
Our approach to instruction
Teachers at Caringbah Public School are committed to explicit and responsive instruction. Our approach to instruction across the school is flexible, but is underpinned by three guiding principles;
- We establish the conditions for learning. Every child has the right to learn in a calm and ordered learning environment. We establish clear routines to minimise disruption and maximise instructional time.
- We build knowledge and secure success. We teach a knowledge-rich curriculum, and equip all students with the solid foundations of literacy and numeracy.
- We promote autonomy and self-regulated learning. We encourage students to be active participants in learning, because their learning goals ultimately belong to them.
Helping students progress
We support every student’s academic progress by;
- checking their progress and giving clear and timely feedback
- setting learning goals with each student
- giving extra help with personalised plans and support from specialist staff
- reporting on each student’s learning progress so parents and carers know how their child is doing
- providing targeted literacy and numeracy support in small groups
- making wellbeing part of everyday learning
- working with families to support learning at home and school
- helping students through transitions, like starting school or moving to a new stage of learning.

What students learn
Students learn a wide range of subjects in the NSW curriculum. They build skills, think creatively and prepare for life beyond school.
At our school, students can take part in special religious education (SRE) or special education in ethics (SEE) classes, depending on what’s available. These classes are delivered by approved providers.
When enrolling your child, you’ll be able to choose an option from the approved providers offered at our school. Students not attending SRE or SEE are given supervised alternative meaningful activities.
You’re welcome to change your choice at any time. Just let us know in writing or use the online form (if available at our school).
