Exford Primary School is situated in a semi-rural setting, which provides a safe, happy and friendly learning environment, which promotes pride, warmth and a sense of belonging.Our anticipated enrolment is 305 students for the 2027 school year.

2025 saw the completion of our School Upgrade: we have already moved into our new Administration building, Junior Learning Building and Senior Learning Building, which includes classrooms, an Art and a Music Room. The renovation of our BER building is also complete, creating a new Library, Science classroom and a Food preparation space. Our new Gymnasium, landscaping, new playground spaces and sports field have been in use from the start of the 2025 school year.

Our staff are a dedicated team, with all teachers and ES staff sharing in the pastoral care of all children. The results of our Staff Opinion survey is consistently high across all indicators, with a strong sense of culture, team work and support for each other.

Our Leading teachers work closely with our teaching staff in our continuing focus on professional learning and supporting our Qualified Learning Teams. Our teachers plan together in PLTs, with a dedicated two hours devoted to this work (protected through our timetable using non-teaching time based on our local agreement). The PLT Leader (remunerated position) and the Learning Specialist work together to support the team¿s curriculum planning and professional learning.Our Leadership team provides feedback and coaching to all our classroom teachers.



This is an important element of our school¿s professional development and growth opportunities for our teaching team and links with our Performance and Development culture.

Comprehensive classroom programs are implemented by highly trained and dedicated staff who focus on the individual learning needs of each child on an individual basis, particularly in Literacy and Numeracy. A dedicated Specialist Program involving all staff, helps ensure the breadth of quality curriculum in accordance with the Victorian Curriculum. We offer four specialist subjects: The Arts, French as our LOTE, Physical Education and Science. Each specialist class has a dedicated teaching space.

Our focus on an integrated teaching and learning environment is supported by the use of ICT resources.Our Strategic Plan (2025 ¿ 2028) focuses on providing strong programs in Literacy, Numeracy, Student Voice and engagement. Our 2025 School Review has informed our recent School Strategic Plan.

We implement a successful Inclusion Program catering for students with a range of learning needs and disabilities and have moved from the Program for Students with Disabilities to the Disability Inclusion Program in 2024 and have begun its implementation.

We offer OSH Club, providing Before and After School Care at our school. We have a real focus on environmental sustainability at our school, in which the children play a leading role.

At Exford Primary School we actively foster an environment where the partnership between staff,



parents and students is highly valued, with children at the centre of our thinking and our actions.

We have been part of the School Wide Positive Behaviour Program for some years and have a school incentive program which acknowledges the children demonstrating our school values of Respect, Kindness and Personal Best. Our school values are an intrinsic part of our school community and we instil high expectations for all of our community members, children and adults.
