Attendance and absences
Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.
In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.

School frameworks (school rules)
As well as following the department’s operational policies, we have developed frameworks for our students in line with our school’s values and commitments.
Cabramatta Public School Behaviour Support and Management Plan
Cabramatta Public School is committed to explicitly teaching and modelling positive behaviour and to supporting all students to be engaged with their learning both in the classroom and on the playground. School practices and processes are regularly reviewed and collaboratively designed to support the wellbeing needs of students. The school prioritises positive engagement between staff and students, ensuring structures are in place to facilitate every student having a staff member to whom they can confidently turn for advice and assistance at school.
Principles of positive behaviour support, trauma-informed practice, inclusive practice, and social emotional learning underpin our daily practice. High expectations for student behaviour are established and maintained through effective role modelling, explicit teaching, and planned responses.
