Sixth teacher for Pretty Beach

Pretty Beach Public School has been allocated a sixth teacher following the stabilisation of its student enrolments.

"Student enrolment numbers have been inconsistent throughout the year," said relieving principal Ms Lee Baldock.

"Student enrolments needed to reach 130 to maintain six classes.

"Our enrolments have now stabilised and we have reached and maintained our 130 student enrolments, for the required time period," she said.

The sixth teacher will teach in a temporary capacity for the remainder of the year.

"Our staff are now working collaboratively to discuss how this additional staffing position can be utilised to best support student learning.

"We are considering all available options including a restructure and the possibility of added teacher support within our current classroom structures.

"We will be holding a parent forum to discuss this matter further, during the last two weeks of term," said Ms Baldock.
