The Pilbara Education Partnership was established to ensure all children start school well-prepared, to make sure all children and young people are ready to take advantage of all the unique employment opportunities in the Pilbara.
The BHP Pilbara Education Partnership was established in 2005, to strengthen education services and improve educational outcomes in public schools within Newman, Port Hedland and surrounding areas within the Shire of East Pilbara and the Town of Port Hedland.
BHP has invested around $30 million in education since 2010. These generous contributions have significantly impacted Western Australia’s public education in general and more specifically, across the Pilbara.
We want to make sure all children are well prepared for their first day of school and throughout their education.
We work with a range of agencies and organisations, offering a coordinated approach to services and early intervention to address any areas of concern.
Building clear pathways between primary and secondary school, all the way into training and employment.
Providing students with the knowledge, skills and attitudes to help them make informed decisions about their future. We do this by offering a planned program of learning experiences to improve their understanding of career pathways and provide targeted support. Supporting all students to have increased opportunities to engage in the new world of work, training or further education.
Supporting students to rise to their full potential and celebrating their success. For all students, based on a whole-school framework, targeted support is provided to assist students to set and meet individual improvement goals around attendance, achievement, leadership and community engagement.
I’ve been really trying my hardest and my best. I have been focusing only on my work, all of my work. I think, get it done, have some fun.”
Success Program, Year 12 student
A key objective of the Rise Up program is to enhance student engagement at school by improving individual attendance, academic achievement, leadership development, mentoring opportunities, goal-setting, and active community involvement.
The Rise Up program at Hedland Senior High School is designed to foster a strong sense of belonging and identity among students while offering meaningful opportunities for leadership development.
Newman Senior High School is committed to offering students diverse pathways to success, particularly in a remote setting where the traditional ATAR route to university may pose unique challenges.
The Hedland Senior High School Pathways strategy focuses on providing students with enhanced support as they transition from school to the workforce, further education, or training.
We acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians of the lands and waters on which our students live and are educated throughout the Pilbara.
We offer our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
