Chilwell Primary School is located in Newtown with a current enrolment of 390 students. Chilwell is a family orientated school with a strong partnership with the community. Chilwell creates a learning environment for all students & staff in which the principles of care, courtesy & respect for the rights and property of all are valued. A school Chaplain is appointed to our school; the role is integrated with our Student Engagement Policy.
Classroom programs focus on developing a positive & cooperative learning environment in which children can achieve their potential in all curriculum areas. The school provides a sequential & inclusive curriculum based on the Victorian Curriculum, enhanced by Learning Technologies (BringIT2Chilwell iPad program years 2-6) and guided by Early Years & Middle Years philosophies. Teachers remain committed to continuous professional development. Team planning of curriculum and Professional Learning Teams promote a shared pedagogy, are driven by assessment data and supported Literacy, Numeracy and ICT Coaching. While Literacy, Numeracy & ICT are our curriculum strengths we have high quality specialist teaching programs in Physical Education, Visual Arts, LOTE (Italian) and STEM, (Science, Technology, both Design / Digital, and Mathematics) and a Library. This school has 24.5 equivalent full time staff, 2 principal class officers, 21 teachers and 4 Education Support staff.
A major refurbishment of the South Wing of the school continues our endeavour to provide a well maintained and functional learning environment.
The effects of the corona 19 virus has challenged our school during 2020, but this has only highlighted the strong support the school has from its community and the collegiate support our staff give to each other and our students.
