Our Strategic Plan priorities focus on continuing the improvement in terms of learning outcomes in these key learning areas, and exploring and improving student engagement. We aim to have teams of students and teachers working together enthusiastically as they learn together. We recognise the wide range of backgrounds and interests our students bring to school and the scope of achievement the classroom teachers address on a daily basis. Each child, at Portland North, has a right to be engaged in the curriculum in a challenging and rewarding manner.
