James Nash State High School’s moral purpose is to empower learners. In enacting the
purpose, we transition students to adulthood. Our school delivers this through signature
programs associated with;
- Transition into, through and beyond high school
- Whole School Approach to Pedagogy built upon inclusive practices and our
knowledge of how students learn
- Multi-tiered systems of support that ensure every student has the opportunity to
achieve their potential.
The Student Code of Conduct provides clarity for the stakeholders in the school community
about:
- Expectations
- Support and
- Consequences
associated with the code of student conduct.
The intent of this document is to provide the vision for a preferred future and to articulate
systems and structures through which this vision may be realised.
Parents and other visitors to our school support safety by ensuring their communications and conduct at the school and school activities is respectful.
James Nash SHS is committed to ensuring that all complaints are dealt with in a fair and equitable manner. We want to hear your concerns and we aim to deliver an education where open communication is a major part of our relationship with you and your family.
Our school’s Uniform Policy has been developed in consultation with the principal and representatives of the school community. It is designed to reflect our shared values and create a sense of pride, belonging, and respect among students.
The dress code supports a safe, inclusive, and distraction-free learning environment, and helps prepare students for future workplace expectations. It promotes equity by setting clear and consistent standards for attire, grooming, and uniform requirements.
By wearing the appropriate uniform, students help maintain a respectful and focused school environment where everyone can thrive and feel part of the school community.
