We are busy making arrangements for the 2021 school year. For 2021 we will have slightly fewer students at school and, therefore, need a slightly different class structure. We have also changed our enrolment area to include all students whose permanent residential address is within 3222. This is already increasing our student numbers which may well mean reverting to a more traditional Drysdale PS class structure in 2022.
In 2021 we will operate three single age Prep classes and two single age classes in each of the other year groups plus one composite Year 1 and Year 2 class, one composite Year 3 and Year 4 class and one composite Year 5 and Year 6 class. In each of these composites we will identify children from the younger year group who have the learning skills and maturity to work more closely with the students from the older year group. In all classes we will continue to teach each student as close to their point of learning needs as possible.
We are still finalising with the staff who will be teaching in each year group. As soon as this is complete I will inform the school community.
