Respectful Behaviours within the School Community

Dear Parents and Carers,

Our school community has demonstrated incredible solidarity and resilience throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Being back in our classrooms with extra health and safety measures is another big transition, but it’s the very best one for our children's education. As we navigate these changes to onsite learning, including required mask wearing for some students, it’s more important than ever that adults in our school community treat each other with respect and kindness.

The Department of Education and Training has released a new policy that describes the positive behaviour expected from parents, carers, and other adults in Victorian school communities. The policy sets clear standards of behaviour to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment for students, staff and adults.

There are also other resources to support safe and respectful relationships in our school community, including information about getting involved in the school, advice on how to raise a concern or complaint, and parenting support resources. You can find the new policy and these resources here.

You may also see a new poster up around our school, promoting positive behaviour.

For more information on how to engage positively with our school, please contact us on 5150 4800 or email bairnsdale.sc@education.vic.gov.au

Progress Reports

Progress reports for Term 1 will be published for parents and carers to view via Compass on 10th March 2022.  A 'how to view' your student's Progress report is below and can also be found in the Welcome to Compass booklet.

Entering Student Absences on Compass

The easiest and quickest way for parents/carers to inform the College of a student absence is to enter an Attendance Note on the Compass app before 9.00 am. Go to the Home Page on the Compass app and select Add Attendance Note:

Then add the details in the Attendance Note:

If the College is not informed about a student's absence, parents/carers will receive an SMS message later that day.
