Byron Community Primary School (BCPS) is a unique, independent school where students are guided to fully develop their individual sense self. Our school is a vibrant and inclusive environment where staff are focussed and committed to delivering a rich, balanced teaching program.

Our creative approach to teaching and learning is based on the New South Wales Education Standards Authority (NESA) curriculum, customised to maximise each child’s potential.  We aim to instil a love of learning, self initiative and a passion for personal excellence. 

Over 30 years of commitment from a generation of parents, staff and students has enabled our school to evolve from the vision of a few dedicated parents operating from a small converted shop on the corner of Ruskin and Tennyson Street, into a ten-room, 109 student school.  Today, our facilities include a library, music room, art room, kitchen garden, covered recreational court and a multipurpose hall.

Set amongst appealing gardens and interactive play areas, every space is optimised for the benefit of the students. BCPS is a not for profit, incorporated association where staff and parents collaborate closely. We have a strong focus on values and developing the whole child in a warm, nurturing and safe school environment. We believe our school guides students to become confident, engaged and active contributors to society, both in the local community and beyond.

At BCPS our values help define what we do, how we do it and what we strive for.

Our values:

• Freedom with responsibility

• Realisation of academic potential

• For the love of learning

• Innovation and creativity

• Self-awareness, respect and compassion

• Community participation
