Our beliefs about learning and behaviour:
At Edge Hill we cultivate an environment where every day, in every classroom, every student is learning and achieving. We believe that education is a shared responsibility. We recognise the close relationship between learning, achievement and behaviour. We encourage an experience where the school and home work together so that the child becomes a responsible, active citizen. Essential to effective learning is a safe, supportive and disciplined environment that respects the following rights;
The rights of all students to learn.
The rights of teachers to teach.
The rights of all to be safe.
At Edge Hill State School we utilise a 'whole of school' approach to behaviour management. Central to this approach is the use of school-wide expectations that are embedded in teaching and learning practices. These expectations are taught, practised and modelled;
Be Respectful
Be Safe
Be Responsible
Be Learning
