About us

 

South Coogee Public School provides a nurturing and welcoming environment for students from diverse cultural and socio-economic communities, accommodating 22 classes. The school population is consists of 34% of students from language backgrounds other than English, 10% of students come from Australian Defence Force families (supported by a part time Defence School Mentor) and 5% identify as Indigenous Australians.

The school has an active focus on Visible Learning practices in a restorative and resilient school environment. Researched based practices support teacher and student clarity for effective learning. All learners and teachers understand ‘Visible’ as learners who apply effective habits of thinking and doing, can explain and understand progress, as well as understand how to learn and regularly seek, receive, give and act on feedback.

There are high expectations for sporting endeavours, the performing arts and the provision of extracurricular programs. There are also provision of programs for gifted and talented students, combined with learning support assistance that ensures individual student learning needs are met.
