Rules and Policies

Rules and policies are in place to make sure your child remains safe and well at school. Visit the NSW Department of Education’s policy library for all current operational policies.

Local School Policies

The following frameworks apply to students at our school.

Attendance and absences

Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.

In New South Wales, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to either attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent.

Young people below the age of 17 who have completed Year 10 must be:

  • in school, or registered for home schooling 

  • in approved education or training, such as a traineeship, apprenticeship or TAFE

  • in full-time paid employment (average 25 hours a week) 

  • in a combination of work, education and/or training (average of 25 hours a week combined).

Students 17 years and over who are enrolled in school must attend school regularly to meet HSC course requirements. 

As a parent or carer, you are responsible for ensuring your child attends school every day when they are of compulsory school age. You must explain all absences to the school within 7 days.
