Curriculum

​

St Ignatius embeds the Australian Curriculum from Prep to Year 6 for all learners.  All phases of learning at  St Ignatius Catholic Primary are underpinned by Brisbane Catholic Education’s Learning and Teaching Framework and The Alice Springs                  ​ (Mparntwe) Declaration (2019). The Alice Springs (Mparntwe - pronounced as 'M- ban-tua') Education Declaration sets the national vision for education for all Australians and notes two goals:

1. The Australian education system promotes excellence and equity.

2. All young Australians become:

· Confident and creative individuals

· Successful lifelong learners

· Active and informed members of the community

In alignment with the declaration, which promotes excellence and equity, we support students to achieve high standards and provide structures and adjusted strategies that enable equitable learning experiences. This is achieved within a faith-filled learning environment in which we are committed to supporting students to become confident and creative individuals, successful lifelong learners and active and informed members of the community.

Our learning environment is enriched by our Ignatian charism and Mercy tradition in which we value the daily living of Gospel values. We value every child as a learner and understand that all children learn in different ways and at different rates.

At St Ignatius School, we have high expectations for our learners, and this is fostered through challenging experiences that make connections to the real world, provoking curiosity, innovative thinking, and a love of learning.  Our School develops assessment capable learners who understand that they are encouraged and supported to learn, monitor their own progress, set goals, and reflect on their learning.

Students engage in and are reported against the following Key Learning Areas of the Australian Curriculum:

  • Religious Education
  • English
  • Mathematics
  • Science
  • Humanities & Social Sciences (HASS)
  • Health and Physical Education (HPE)
