Description du poste

Austral Public School is located in a rapidly growing area of Southwest Sydney, which is currently undergoing redevelopment. The school supports a community which is increasingly diverse in socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. There are currently 972 students enrolled in 42 classes.

72.4% of students are from non-English speaking backgrounds, with the largest representation of language groups from the Arabic, Hindu, Nepalese, Samoan and Pakistani communities. The Italian language, heritage and culture are fostered through our Italian community language program and 1.8% of our students are Aboriginal. We see a consistently growing need to support our students and their families who have language backgrounds other than English. Our Language Background other than English (LBOTE) representation is 87.4%.

There is a strong culture of quality teaching through continuous reflection and high-quality professional learning. The teaching staff reflects a balance of experienced and newly appointed teachers, and we are committed to ensuring that the current methods of best practice, quality teaching and high expectations are embedded in all classes.

Austral Public School is supported by an active Parents and Citizens Association who are involved in decision making, assist in implementing school programs and fund raise to improve facilities and support school initiatives.
