Curriculum
Every student succeeding is the shared vision of Queensland state schools. This strategy underpins regional and school planning to ensure every student receives the support needed to belong to the school community, engage purposefully in learning and experience academic success.
Our school priorities align to the strategy to ensure improvement across our system to enable every student to succeed. At Wamuran State School, we strive to engage all students in learning experiences that develop their skills and knowledge to become lifelong learners. We aim to provide a balanced program that develops a positive attitude to learning and encourages active learning, strong relationships, co-operation, and the development of social, emotional and independent learning skills.
