At Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese, our teachers bring effective, evidence-based teaching strategies into every classroom. Our focus on explicit teaching ensures that our students know exactly what they’re learning and how to succeed. We know that great teachers make a real difference in a student’s life.
Everything we do is focused on helping each child flourish in faith, dignity, and hope.
Our teachers make sure every child has the best opportunity to grow, succeed, and feel supported in their learning journey through:
- regular check-ins on student progress
- appropriate and relevant support and enrichment opportunities
- a strong focus on wellbeing and safe school environments.
Our teachers are lifelong learners too
Most of our teachers have more than 5 years of teaching experience and hold 2 or more professional qualifications. We invest in continuous staff training, through our own in-house professional learning programs, to coaching, to hosting guest speakers and sharing best practice with other school systems and industry partners.
We encourage personal development, with a significant number of our teachers holding a Masters Degree and many more in the process of obtaining additional qualifications. Our support staff are also very experienced with outstanding skills and in many cases, specialised training.
Our teachers are lifelong learners too
Every child is different and so is their learning journey
Our teachers make each student feel valued and safe, and help them strive towards excellence. Our schools are safe places for each child to belong, make friends and be cared for.
Teamwork between our schools and families combined with expert staff, well-designed, well-resourced learning environments, and a commitment to continual improvement help us to meet your child’s needs. Our schools are communities of learners, thinkers and achievers.

Let’s work together
The best learning happens when there’s a strong partnership between home and school. Our caring staff will take every opportunity to talk with you about your child’s learning. As parents, we know you want to know how the learning works, and we’ll keep you updated when it’s working well for your child and when it’s not.
After all, we’re all in this together!
