Description

Sacred Heart Primary in Pearce excels in literacy and numeracy, with 67% of Year Five students showing above-average progress in reading. The schools success is attributed to explicit teaching methods, part of the Catalyst program, which emphasizes data review, skill instruction, and concept revisiting. Teacher Amy Kellys engaging approach, integrating reading with other subjects and tailoring lessons to student interests, also contributes to the students love for reading. Sacred Heart, along with Duffy Primary, is recognized for progress between 2023 and 2025, with the explicit teaching model adopted by government schools through the Stronger Foundations program. The 2025 NAPLAN data, now accessible on MySchool, focuses on student progress, offering parents more transparency in school choices.
