Curriculum Kororoit Creek Primary School is a fully authorized World School for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). The school curriculum is underpinned by the Victorian Curriculum and delivered through the PYP which provides a rich and rigorous inquiry model of learning. The curriculum contextualizes student learning as well as understanding and transfer of practice, whilst building the knowledge, skills and attributes of individual students and staff as lifelong learners. We continually strive to ensure high levels of literacy and numeracy which are taught explicitly as well as through the interdisciplinary nature of the inquiry process. KCPS supports strong community values which underpin the safe and orderly learning environment which contribute directly to the school's positive standing and high reputation within the immediate and broader area. All staff at the school are provided with accredited IBO professional learning and take part in the school's coaching program which is supported by both internal coaches and external consultants.
