Assistant Principal - Gillieston Public School

Gillieston Public School is a rapidly growing and increasingly diverse K–6 school, with approximately 500 students anticipated in 2027, alongside two support classes and a 60-place public preschool. In 2026, the school has enrolled 109 Aboriginal students and 81 students identified as EAL/D, reflecting the diversity of our school community and the importance of strong, inclusive practices.

The school works in partnership with the AECG and Kurri Kurri Learning Community and is supported by an engaged P&C. Our improvement focus is centred on strengthening literacy and numeracy outcomes through collaborative practice, evidence-informed decision making and high-quality explicit teaching. We also maintain a strong focus on belonging, engagement and wellbeing, creating a school culture in which every student is known, valued and supported to learn and succeed.
