Attitudes to School Survey Data for 2026
We are very proud of the strong culture of community and learning reflected in this year’s Attitudes to School Survey results. With all students in Years 4–6 participating, the data provides us with valuable insight into how our students experience school, their learning and their relationships.
Our results continue to be consistently positive over time, which is something we are extremely proud of. They reflect the ongoing commitment of our staff to creating a positive, supportive and engaging learning environment where every student feels valued and encouraged to learn.
Survey Summary Data - Percentage of positive endorsement


Similar Schools are schools with comparable student populations based on the Student Family Occupation (SFO) Index, while Network Schools are schools within the Banyule local government area.
While we celebrate the overall results, we also take the opportunity to dig deeper into the data. Looking at trends over time, cohort-level results and differences across areas such as gender helps us better understand the experiences of our students and identify areas for continued growth. This deeper analysis ensures that we are not simply looking at the overall picture, but considering what the data is telling us about different groups of learners and where we can continue to strengthen our practice.
Our school values of Respect, Responsibility, Care and Doing your Best continue to shine through in the results. These values underpin the way we work together and are evident in the culture we strive to create every day.
We know that strong student outcomes are built on the dedication and hard work of our staff. We are incredibly grateful for the care, professionalism and commitment they bring to creating a positive learning environment and a strong culture of learning for every student.
We will continue to celebrate our strengths, learn from the data and use these insights to ensure we keep moving forward together.
We are looking forward to seeing many of you next Wednesday for our annual Book Week parade!
Natalie, Claire and Sam
