Who We Are
Binjour Plateau State School is a small rural school where our motto, "Grow with Binjour" , reflects our commitment to nurturing every student's individual potential. We deliver the Australian Curriculum in a multi-age classroom setting from Prep to Year 6, allowing for a personalised and inclusive learning environment.
Our teachers focus on understanding each student's unique strengths and tailor their teaching through differentiated learning experiences and high-yield pedagogies. This approach enables students to confidently demonstrate their knowledge and understanding in ways that play to their strengths, leading to quality learning outcomes.
Specialist teachers visit the school to deliver lessons in Health & Physical Education, Music, and Chinese (for students in Years 3–6). In addition, our school chaplain supports the wellbeing of students, staff, and families with weekly visits each Wednesday, helping to foster a caring and connected school community.
