We are a vibrant community school of approximately 530 students, with 23 classes and a dedicated team of around 63 staff. Our students also enjoy specialist programs in Physical Education, Visual Arts, Performing Arts and Auslan.

Our students are curious, diverse and enthusiastic learners who bring energy and individuality to our school community. At Darley, student wellbeing sits alongside learning at the heart of our work. We know that students learn best when they feel safe, supported, connected and known, and we are committed to creating an inclusive environment where every student can experience success.

At Darley, we are proud of our strong, supportive and collegial staff culture. Our values of Respect, Responsibility, Honesty and Teamwork underpin the way we work with our students, families and one another.

We value learning, collaboration and laughter, and believe that when our staff thrive, our students do too. Our staff genuinely care for one another, share expertise openly, work collectively to solve problems and celebrate each other¿s successes.

Our teaching and learning approach is grounded in evidence-informed practice, including the Science of Learning and a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS). Teachers work collaboratively in Professional Learning Communities to plan, assess and respond to student learning needs. Professional learning, coaching and leadership support are embedded in our approach, supporting teachers to continually strengthen their practice and achieve positive outcomes for every student.

Balance matters at Darley. We believe clear structures, shared expectations and purposeful ways of working allow our staff to focus on what matters most ¿ high-quality teaching and learning ¿ while maintaining a healthy balance beyond the school day.
