At Ormiston State School we recognise that student learning is inextricably linked to student wellbeing, a sense of belonging, individual needs and capabilities, and engagement in real-life and purposeful learning experiences. These are integral to successful learning and cannot be separated from the curriculum or pedagogical practices.

To improve student learning outcomes, Ormiston State School integrates whole school processes in Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL), inclusive education practices, wellbeing initiatives, and deep learning (evidence-based and high impact active teaching practices that put the learner first) as a fundamental part of daily classroom instruction. We recognise that individual student needs must be understood and met for a child to be ‘ready to learn’ and to succeed, irrespective of circumstances or capability.
