Attendance pol​​icy

We expect every child to be at school every day unless there is a valid reason for absence. Read our attendance policy (DOC, 56KB)​ to find out what constitutes a valid reason, how to report absences and how the school responds to absences.

If your child is going to be absent for more than 10 consecutive days you are required to complete an ​ application for exemption from compulsory state schooling​ (DOC, 147KB)​.

Refer to the parent information sheet (DOCX, 270KB)  for further information.

Enrolment man​​agement plan

Our school is guided by an enrolment management plan​.​ This plan has been developed to ensure that we retain enrolment capacity to serve the future development within our catchment. 

Student code of conduct

Our ​​student code of conduct (PDF, 3.2MB) which has been endorsed by the P&C committee has a clear focus on self-management, setting high expectations and keeping parents informed. One of the key elements is the managing behaviour flowchart.

Student dress code 

At Springfield Central State School we have an agreed ​standard of dress for the students who attend our school. The dress code goes beyond the agreed standards of specified items of clothing (including uniform, shoes and hats) to expectations of other aspects of personal presentation of students (including bags, hair, jewellery and body art).  This code is endorsed by the P&C and School Council.

This poster provides visuals of acceptable and not acceptable shoes (PDF, 231KB) in accordance with our Student dress code. We greatly appreciate the support of parents when sending their child to school in plain black school shoes. children wearing unacceptable shoes will swap shoes for the day and borrow a pair from the school's collection.

Earrings and Hair Accessories

At Springfield Central State School we value punctuality, our bel​l tim​​es (PDF, 100KB) are important to us and we ask parents and students to be vigilant in following the allocated times. We ask that students do not arrive at school before 8.30 am as there is no supervision of students in the mornings.​​
