Promoting Positive Relationships

Chapman School aims to satisfy the needs of individual students to the greatest extent possible. Our Mission Statement is that:

Chapman Primary School works with families to assist students to become responsible, caring and cooperative learners who actively participate in a broad curriculum that serves their present needs and provides a secure grounding for later learning and living.

Towards this end, our school aims to ensure that:

• Each child is to be respected and his or her individuality recognised
• The curriculum will be designed and implemented with flexibility to meet the needs and abilities of each child as an individual and as a member of a group in a variety of situations
• The learning environment provided by the School and the community will encourage adaptability, initiative, self-reliance and self-discipline with individual guidance and discipline  
• Individual potential will be achieved in a positive climate of trust, through relevant curriculum and the provision of a positive guidance program  
• Each student will develop a sound knowledge of the basic skills in literacy and numeracy, while optimum performance will be encouraged in all learning experiences
  

A high level of attainment in education at Chapman will be accomplished through a partnership between teachers, parents and students.  Parents are encouraged to involve themselves in the School's operation and learning program.
