Glen Waverley South Primary School has an excellent reputation in its own and the broader community.
Glen Waverley South Primary School is committed to providing a safe, supportive and nurturing environment in which diversity is valued. Glen Waverley South Primary School shares the same site as Brentwood Secondary College and a childcare centre/preschool. This is an exciting development for the local community, with the provision of excellence in education from preschool to year twelve in one precinct.
Our multicultural diversity adds to the richness and quality of the educational experience of students, staff, parents and the wider community. Our students have a strong desire to learn. The school's results in student achievement for literacy and numeracy are consistently above State and Like School Group in most areas. Glen Waverley South Primary School has a strong tradition of parent and community partnerships. An active School Council, Junior School Council, Parent Class Representative group and numerous volunteers represent a learning community committed to the school's vision.
Our school community will teach students many things about life to enable them to enter and participate effectively in society through:
• Encouraging students to reach their academic, social, emotional and physical potential.
• Providing an innovative, challenging and inclusive curriculum.
• Promoting a culture of excellence.
• Acknowledging and celebrating individual achievements.
• Instilling knowledge, values, beliefs and teaching the 'essential' skills to become life long learners.
• Developing resilience in students to enable them to lead healthy and well-balanced lives.
