Keppel Sands State School is dedicated to fostering a safe, respectful, and disciplined learning environment for both students and staff. We provide students with opportunities to engage in high-quality learning experiences while cultivating values that support their lifelong well-being.
We are committed to continuous school improvement, with a strong focus on student achievement and engagement through the principles of Equity and Excellence. Our goal is to ensure all students have access to the Australian Curriculum, with particular emphasis on enhancing literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills. Our teaching and learning strategies aim to develop students who actively contribute to both our school and the broader community.
Our school vision, "Inspiring successful, proud, and confident learners," is deeply embedded in our practices. We uphold values of respect, responsibility, effort, and safety to nurture students who are not only successful but also demonstrate integrity and confidence.
In 2025, our school improvement priorities will focus on leading and driving collaborative success, implementing research-based approaches to multi-age teaching—including a focus on reading across the Australian Curriculum—ensuring the effective delivery of the curriculum, and providing structured feedback to staff, students, and parents. Our progress is closely monitored through a range of feedback mechanisms, including verbal, qualitative, and quantitative data.
Keppel Sands is an inclusive small school with dedicated staff, proven results, excellent behaviour and high standards and expectations " Excellence, and Equity by the Beach – Where Small School Family Values Thrive".
