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.
Our school uses the department's School Community Charter to ensure all of our communication is collaborative and respectful.
Attendance and absences
Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.
In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.

School Behaviour Support and Management Plan (SBSMP)
At Grose View Public School, we are committed to creating a positive, inclusive, and safe learning environment for all students that is safe, predictable, dignified and calm. As part of the NSW Department of Education’s Student Behaviour Policy, all schools are required to develop and implement a School Behaviour Support and Management Plan (SBSMP) by Term 1, 2025.
The SBSMP outlines our whole-school approach to supporting student behaviour, focusing on:
- Prevention and early intervention to promote positive behaviour.
- Targeted support for students who need additional help.
- Strategies for managing inappropriate behaviours, including bullying and cyberbullying.
- Partnerships with parents and carers to ensure consistent support between home and school.
Our plan is developed in consultation with the school community, tailored to meet the needs of our students, and aligned with inclusive practices.
Key features of the SBSMP include:
- Clear school-wide expectations for behaviour.
- Proactive strategies to teach and reinforce positive behaviours.
- Effective responses to inappropriate or challenging behaviours.
- Ongoing communication and engagement with parents and carers.
We will also review the SBSMP annually to ensure it remains effective and relevant, using feedback from students, families, staff and school data.
For more information see the Behaviour Code for students and School Community Charter.
