Our policies and reports

Our policies and reports help families understand how our school works. Our annual report and school plan show what we’ve done and how we’re improving each year.  Our policies address attendance, absences, behaviour, uniform and how we respond to your concerns.

Annual school report

Each year, we share our progress in the annual school report. It gives families a clear picture of how our school is performing and how we’re supporting every student’s success. The report reflects our commitment to openness, accountability and continuous improvement.

The report includes:

• what we’re doing well and where we’re improving
• student achievement and academic progress
• our school vision and goals
• key highlights and milestones
• challenges we’ve faced and how we’re addressing them.

School excellence plan

Our school excellence plan (SEP) is a working document that shows our priorities in learning, teaching and leading. It explains our focus areas for improvement and how we plan to get there. We write our SEP with help from our school community so it reflects our shared priorities.

School behaviour support and management plan

Rainbow Street Public School does not have a separate School Behaviour Support and Management Plan (SBSMP). Instead, our school follows the NSW Department of Education’s Anti-Bullying Policy and implements our own Wellbeing and Inclusion Guidelines, which outline:

• Our school values and rules
• Teaching and learning supports
• Attendance procedures
• Positive behaviour supports
• Our commitment to engaging with our community

These guidelines also include our expectations for behaviour in different settings:

• Learning Hub Expectations
• Playground Expectations
• Learner Qualities
• Rainbow Reward System
• Behaviour Management
• Student Leadership and Awards

Rainbow Street Public School is committed to supporting positive behaviour for all students in our learning community. By supporting positive behaviour, the school strives to develop socially responsible, respectful and engaged students who embody the Rainbow Street Public School Learner Qualities.

Students displaying negative behaviours are afforded three warnings before being transitioned to a new learning space to continue their learning with a ‘buddy teacher’. The Stage Assistant Principal then engages in restorative practice with the student and contacts their parent/carer.
