Babinda State School

One of the most valuable aspects of an education at our school is that students who are enrolled can seamlessly transition from the early years of prep through primary school, into secondary and successfully complete senior and leave with a real-life pathway. To safeguard this and ensure that this occurs we:
- Provide a nurturing environment in the early years from prep through primary school where safety, health and caring strengthen teacher, student and parent relationships and a strong focus is placed on providing a solid foundation of literacy and numeracy fundamentals as well as higher order thinking skills and technology use.
- Ensure a supportive early secondary school setting where the values of integrity, diligence, compassion and respect are forged through varied curriculum opportunities. We know that students in this phase experience an unmatched period of cognitive, physical, social and emotional change and this is supported through strong staff relationships, goal setting and by engaging students in authentic and meaningful learning.
- Deliver a flexible and innovative senior program which offers a wide variety of high-quality pathways to post schooling success for students. Our learning options are enriched by providing students with the opportunity to study both a rigorous academic program or vocational and trade options via face-to-face learning, virtual learning or through external TAFE providers. Many of our students also access early entry programs into university and school-based apprenticeship and traineeships.
- Offer an Earning, learning or training – service commitment to provide post-secondary assurance that students will finish schooling with a real-life outcome.
