Wellbeing is fundamental to successful learning. Young people who are supported to feel safe and develop meaningful relationships are better placed to achieve positive learning outcomes.
We promote a positive culture of wellbeing at St Paul’s College, including;
- a sense of optimism and confidence in one’s ability to influence the world for the common good
- structures, policies, procedures and initiatives, which are reflective of our school’s vision and mission and supported through effective leadership
- fostering of parent and community partnerships to maximise student outcomes
- empowerment of the school community to get the most out of student learning
- the belief that wellbeing is integral rather than incidental to learning, and the development of social and emotional learning skills which enable students to flourish.
