Narranga Public School serves families in the western part of Coffs Harbour on the NSW Mid-North Coast. We have over 640 students, who are drawn from a range of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. The school's Family Occupation and Education Index is 120, with 14% of students from an Aboriginal background, and 8% for whom English is an additional language or dialect.
Equity funds received by the school are used primarily to employ staff to directly improve student outcomes. A team of teachers and support staff provide high quality, comprehensive educational programs. They are supported by parents and overseen by a professional executive team, led by the principal.
The school curriculum provides a balance across all key learning areas, with a particular focus on literacy and numeracy. Enrichment and remedial programs are provided to support the individual needs of all students.
Narranga has strong traditions of artistic and sporting excellence. The school's performing arts groups provide creative learning opportunities, while the comprehensive sports program has led to consistent individual and team success at regional and state levels.
The school has the support of an active community which contributes to a range of school programs and has helped develop excellent educational facilities. The school promotes a positive and inclusive environment which focuses on individual and team accomplishment in an atmosphere of fun, respect and goodwill.
