Guidelines
Class Placements at Riverton Primary School
At Riverton Primary School, placing students into classes is a thoughtful and deliberate process aimed at creating supportive, balanced, and inclusive learning environments. Our primary focus is to ensure that every student’s academic, social, and emotional needs are met so that they can thrive and achieve their potential.
Class placements are guided by the principle that each child should be placed in a setting that maximises opportunities for learning, collaboration, and personal growth. Teachers and the leadership team consider a variety of factors, including student learning profiles, social dynamics, work habits, behaviour, and the overall balance of each class. We aim to create environments where students feel challenged yet supported, develop positive relationships, and experience a sense of belonging.
Split or composite classes are also a standard and carefully considered part of primary education. These classes, which include students from consecutive year levels, allow for flexibility in teaching, equitable class sizes, and tailored learning opportunities that respond to the needs of all students. Teachers differentiate learning in these settings to ensure that every student can engage meaningfully with the curriculum.
Each placement is designed to provide students with the best possible environment to flourish academically, socially, and emotionally, while supporting the school’s broader educational vision.
For further information about our approach, families are encouraged to refer to the Riverton Primary School Class Placement Policy.
