Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:

  • supporting individual students who need help with health issues
  • providing first aid and temporary care of students who become unwell or who have an accident at school.

Student wellbeing

Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.

The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.

The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allows them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.

Positive Behaviour for Learning

At our school, we use Positive Behaviour for Learning – a whole-school approach for creating a positive, safe and supportive school climate where students can learn and develop. Our whole school community works together to establish expected behaviours and teach them to all students.

Our school PBL purpose statement

At Speers Point Public School, it is our purpose to foster and promote an inclusive, safe and effective learning environment. We believe social, emotional, behavioural and academic success can be attained through the establishment of effective behavioural supports which will allow our students to become stronger and smarter and deal confidently with a complex and rapidly changing world.  Developing responsible citizens and successful lifelong learners is our goal in creating our future together.

This part of our school website is dedicated to providing information and resources that we use at Speers Point to encourage all our students to be Respectful, Responsible, Safe, Achievers.
