Drouin West aims to provide a safe, caring and vibrant environment that enhances learning, personal growth and well being for all students in their endeavours to become effective and productive members of the global society. Our new facilities have greatly enhanced the opportunities for students with new learning spaces equipped with state of the art technologies and flexibility so the different learning needs of students can be met. The playgrounds, gardens and outdoor learning spaces have continued to be upgraded to include active and passive areas. The school is committed to involving parents and the broader community in the day to day life of the school valuing the strong partnerships that have been established. A high level of parent involvement in classroom, art and physical education programs enables the best opportunities to be made available for students. Parent contributions to School Council, various sub-committees and school events throughout the year, reflect the value parents place on education as a priority for their children. This school has equivalent full time staff: 1 Principal, 10.7 teachers and 3.4 education support staff. Teaching and learning caters for the different learning needs and interests of students through inquiry based units. There is also a focus on improving literacy and numeracy outcomes for all students as these are fundamental to future learning opportunities.
