Coopers Plains State School is a learning community educating today's students for tomorrow's world. We focus on educating individual students to interact meaningfully in society through the provision of a balanced and broad education. Students come from many different cultural backgrounds. Approximately 30% of students speak languages other than English at home. Love of learning is nurtured through our innovative practices and inclusive curriculum. We educate students to be life long learners giving them multiple opportunities to understand and demonstrate learning, working with Literacy and Numeracy as cornerstones. Essential to providing quality teaching and learning experiences is the provision of an intellectually challenging, safe and supportive learning environment which caters to the needs of individual children. This is underpinned by a pro-active Responsible Behaviour Plan for Students applying 'The Coopers Way', which is based on the philosophy and practices of 'The Values of Australian Schooling'. The staff, students and families of Coopers Plains State School work together as a team, building positive and rewarding relationships. Our students are confident and proud of their achievements. They develop leadership skills and understand the advantages of working together as a team to achieve their academic, social, sporting and creative goals.
