At Coburg Primary School, student wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to creating a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment where all students feel safe, valued, and empowered to learn. Guided by our core values of Courage, Empathy, Curiosity, and Respect, we foster a school culture that encourages collaboration, resilience, and personal growth.

School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS)

Our School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) program is built upon our school values and aims to proactively teach and reinforce positive behaviours. Rather than waiting for behaviour to occur, we focus on setting clear expectations, modelling appropriate behaviours, and acknowledging students who demonstrate them.
