At Kings Park Primary School, we believe every student can achieve highly. We set ambitious expectations for learning and behaviour and are committed to ensuring every child makes strong progress, develops confidence and reaches their full potential.
Our commitment is captured in our guiding statement:
Closing the gap. Raising the bar. Expanding horizons.
This reflects our unwavering focus on equity, excellence and opportunity. We work collectively to ensure every student has the strong foundations, knowledge and skills they need to succeed, while providing challenge and enrichment that enables students to extend their learning and discover what they are capable of.
High expectations. Strong foundations.
Academic achievement matters at Kings Park. We place a strong emphasis on the development of high-level literacy and numeracy skills, recognising these as the foundations for success across all areas of learning. Our teachers use evidence-informed teaching practices, assessment and targeted support to identify student needs, address learning gaps and extend achievement. We are committed to knowing where every student is in their learning, knowing where they need to go and knowing how to get them there. We expect students to take pride in their learning, embrace challenge and develop the independence, persistence and curiosity needed to become successful lifelong learners.
A broad education. Endless opportunities.
While literacy and numeracy are fundamental, we believe a great primary education should open the door to much more.
Students experience a rich and balanced curriculum encompassing:
English and Mathematics
Science
Humanities
Japanese
Digital technologies
Visual, Media and Performing Arts
Sport and physical development
Through this broad curriculum, students develop not only knowledge and skills, but also creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication and problem-solving.
Every child known. Every child supported.
High expectations go hand in hand with strong relationships and wellbeing. At Kings Park, every student has the right to feel safe, be safe and belong. We create a caring, inclusive and respectful environment where students are supported to take risks in their learning, develop positive relationships and become confident, responsible young people. We celebrate the diversity of our community and ensure that every child, regardless of background, culture, ability or circumstance, has access to the support and opportunities they need to thrive.
Preparing students for their future
Our goal extends beyond academic achievement. We want our students to leave Kings Park as independent thinkers, confident communicators, capable learners and active citizens. We encourage students to ask questions, think critically, use technology purposefully, understand and respect others, and take increasing responsibility for their own learning and development. Our school motto, “Learn to Live,” reflects this broader purpose. By the time students leave Kings Park in Year 6, we want them to have the knowledge, skills, confidence and values to navigate their next stage of learning and continue to thrive as lifelong learners.
