Rushworth P-12 Colleges mission is to inspire learning for all students, staff and the community. At our college students strive for excellence in their life and studies, and teachers model and practice excellence in their work. It is an environment where learning is presumed to be a natural and lifelong pursuit. We believe that every child can learn, wants to learn and can be trusted to learn, and that positive and respectful relationships are foundations to learning. Our school is developing a new focus on the classroom and improving teaching strategies. This will improve student learning outcomes, especially in Literacy and Numeracy. Student engagement and connectedness is being closely monitored and improved through a range of measures and especially through a revised Focus Group Program across all year levels. The college offers its 266 (131 female and 135 male) students a friendly, caring, safe and rigorous learning environment where each student strives to achieve his or her best and contributes positively to the community. There are 2 Principal class, 21.4 teachers and 10.2 ES staff in 2010.
