Teacher - Guildford Public School

Guildford Public School is situated on the traditional homelands of the Cabrogal of the Dharug Nation. Opened in 1915, Guildford Public School now serves a diverse and multicultural community with 91% of the 645 students being from a non-English speaking background with approximately 26% being from an Arabic speaking background while 26% are from a Dari, Hazaraghi or Urdu speaking background. 2% of students identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. We have strong professional learning alliances with the Curriculum Reform Communities Granville Network and Fairfield Local AECG. The school has an active P&C and offers a range of adult learning experiences. Guildford Public School continues a strong and active partnership with allied health services to further enhance students' student agency and self-determination together with parent inclusion.

The school culture is firmly focused on learning K-6 and improving literacy and numeracy outcomes for all students by developing inclusive programs. The school leadership team and dedicated, caring staff maintain high expectations, aspirations and responsibility for the achievement of every student. Literacy, numeracy and an integrated curriculum are explicitly and systematically delivered and underpinned through an evaluative teaching and learning cycle. Whole school well-being programs and procedures are built on evidence-based practices, thorough assessment and informed evaluative practices resulting in positive and effective learning experiences and learning environments.
