Coffs Harbour Public School strives to be a leading primary school in the North Coast Region through emphasising the fundamental importance of basic skills development for all students; by providing regular opportunities for students to develop and demonstrate their talents and interests in all curricula; and by promoting social responsibility.
The school's prime purpose, emphasised by its motto: 'Be Safe, Be Fair, Be Kind, Be Cooperative', and modelled through the commitment of teachers and parents, is the provision of quality learning opportunities, enabling students to perform to the best of their abilities. Teachers are increasing their effectiveness by meeting in teams to develop common learning programs, utilise unique or shared knowledge and skills, and develop common assessment and reporting practices.
Coffs Harbour Public School is committed to excellence, humaneness and equity for all. This is to be achieved through: the provision of comprehensive programs which promote quality education; the creation of a positive environment which recognises excellent performance, personal growth and self esteem; the delegation and acceptance of responsibility involving individual and collective participation throughout the school and community; and the efficient and effective management of resources.
