P-5 Class Placements for 2021

We will soon begin the complex process of allocating students into classes for 2021. This is a process we take very seriously and many factors are taken into account when considering each child’s placement. These include student learning needs, gender balance, class target size and friendship groups.

Your child’s teacher knows how your child works in school, the intricacies of their relationships, their abilities and their passions. They have a clear picture of their academic performance, outcomes and their social connections.

Each child will have the opportunity to list a group of friends with whom they can work positively. Our aim is that each child will be with at least one friend on their list – not necessarily their first choice.

We use all the data we have to the make the best decision for your child and your family. The draft lists are rechecked by Mr Damian Davis and myself before they are finalised. Should you have any family needs or concerns, please email me: szweck@pacluth.qld.edu.au. Please also be aware that this process does not take into account requests for a specific teacher; we have an amazing staff who have your child’s best interests at the centre of their thinking.
