Richmond North Public School
Richmond North Public School engages students, staff, parents and community in a shared learning journey. Students are nurtured, guided, challenged and supported to achieve their personal best in a learning environment of high expectations and explicit teaching practices. We develop within our students holistic integrity through the development of key habits of character including: respect, resilience, courage, inclusion and optimism. We prepare our students to become well-rounded, confident, responsible and academically curious individuals who ‘strive to achieve’ their full potential.
The Richmond North Public School difference
A strong start with evidence informed teaching
Explicit Instruction is based on learning theory in educational neuroscience and on international evidence-based best practice. Explicit Instruction uses a set of teaching techniques for modelling skills, guided practice and independent practice, along with the Six Givens that set the context for effective explicit instruction. The approach can be effective for all types of learners.
A strong focus on student wellbeing with our Crew structures
Crew is the key structure that we use at Richmond North to address student wellbeing. Crew is a way of being that creates a culture of compassion, respect, teamwork, and shared responsibility. It is evident in school structures, such as family events, service learning, peer mentoring and tutoring, and student leadership.
Support for every family
Our teachers and learning and wellbeing support teams work with our families. We co-design plans that help students learn in the way that works best for them.
