About the school
Liverpool Public School is located in the Liverpool CBD and serves an area with significant cultural diversity, where 92% of its students come from a language background other than English. The student body comprises approximately 730 learners, with nearly half of the students having been in Australia for less than three years, and about 20% coming from refugee backgrounds. The school promotes core values of safety, respect, and a commitment to learning, as defined by the school community. These values are reinforced through both curricular and welfare programs, encouraging students to become independent learners and creative problem solvers.
Quality teaching programs at Liverpool Public School focus heavily on literacy and numeracy, which are prioritised in the school's educational offerings. Notable initiatives include The Leader in Me and Intensive English Programs designed for newly arrived students. To support the diverse needs of the student population, the school collaborates with local support services such as the NSW Service for the Treatment and Rehabilitation of Torture and Trauma Survivors (STARTTS), Learning Links, and the Liverpool Migrant Resource Centre.
As a co-educational primary school catering to students from Kindergarten to Year 6, Liverpool Public School is dedicated to creating a safe and inclusive environment that fosters academic, social, and emotional growth. With a strong focus on community engagement, the school embodies a commitment to providing a nurturing and supportive educational experience for all its students.
