Warren Central School is committed to providing a stimulating, caring and cooperative learning environment for 250 students (K - 12) from the township of Warren and it's surrounding rural areas. The school prides itself on providing an inclusive learning environment for both mainstream students and students with disabilities. Warren Central School is very well resourced to support learning programs which have been developed to extend the learning capacity of all students. The school participates in programs which aim to improve K-2 student outcomes in literacy and numeracy and employs an Instructional Leader (K - 2) to deliver targeted interventions. The COVID Intensive Learning Support Program has been implemented with the employment of an educator (Years 3 - 6) and an SLSO to provide small group tuition, focusing on core content and skills, particularly literacy and numeracy. The school staff consists of approximately 50 personnel comprising school executive, classroom teachers, casual teachers, school learning support officers, Aboriginal Education Officers and administrative staff. Overall the staff is highly experienced and professional in their respective roles and responsibilities. The low staff turnover rate together with executive staff being permanently appointed, has positively impacted on the balance and stability of the school's leadership team.
As a result of our findings in our consultative situational analysis, we have identified the following high level areas for improvement - quality teaching, data use, instructional leadership and collaborative practice. The school receives significant resource allocation to address areas for development and a number of initiatives will be implemented to improve student growth in literacy and numeracy, promote student wellbeing and build the capacity of the staff.
Warren Central School is a proud Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) school with core values of Respectful, Responsible Learners. This provides a safe, caring and positive learning environment where all students have the opportunity to engage in lifelong learning and to become worthy citizens through quality education.
