Learning

At Canterbury South Public School, we deliver the NSW curriculum through rich and varied subjects that nurture every student’s growth. We place a strong focus on literacy and numeracy, knowing these are the foundations for lifelong learning and success.

Collaborative teaching environments

At our school, students benefit from a successful co-teaching model where two-four qualified teachers work together in the same hub. This means more attention for each child, more flexible learning, and more support—whether your child needs extra help or extra challenge. With collaborative teachers combining their expertise, every student is seen, supported and set up to succeed.

Religion and ethics

At our school, students can take part in special religious education (SRE) or special education in ethics (SEE) classes. These classes are delivered by approved providers.
