Marsden Road Public School

Marsden Road Public School was established in 1962 and is built on the traditional lands of the Cabrogal of the Darug Nation. The school serves a diverse community, 90 percent of whom come from a language background other than English. The school is proud of its varied multicultural population, with 57 cultural backgrounds represented. Approximately 20 percent of our total student enrolment is made up of people who have been through refugee experience.

Quality pedagogy based on research and evidence underpins all our programs and structures. The school has systematic and explicit teaching and learning in the key areas of English and mathematics. The school also has structured and systematic assessment schedules across K-6 that includes both, formative and summative tasks. To ensure a rounded and robust curriculum the school has a range of extracurricular activities that include music, dance, art, chess club, debating, public speaking, environmental studies and sports. Our teachers are dedicated and ensure that students learn and thrive in a safe, respectful and caring environment.

Maintenance

To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. The Department also reviews the planned maintenance program for each school every year and reviews those items that are predicted to require work to help prolong the life of the school buildings and facilities.

Demountables

Demountables have been part of the NSW education system for many decades and will continue to be used across the state. Demountable classrooms are modern, air-conditioned rooms that provide students and teaching staff with excellent quality facilities. The learning spaces have the same range of technology that is available in permanent spaces. We review school accommodation needs each year, looking at changing enrolment patterns and other factors to prepare for the upcoming school year. This helps to identify schools that need new demountables and schools where they can removed. Most demountable movement takes place between October and February and we report our annual demountable statistics each April. Additional demountable installations can occur outside this window to support capital works and maintenance projects in schools or emergency responses to natural disasters.

We recognise the Ongoing Custodians of the lands and waterways where we work and live. We pay respect to Elders past and present as ongoing teachers of knowledge, songlines and stories. We strive to ensure every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learner in NSW achieves their potential through education.
