Teaching Philosophy:
In Paul's view the purpose of schooling is two-fold.
The first aim of schooling is to get students to a point where they are ready to become independent and purposeful members of society. Educating them in the key learning areas, as well as developing their personal, social and cultural skills is very important. For students, the learning journey does not finish at the end of secondary school.
The second main purpose for schooling is to prepare students for the next stage of their education or career, whether that is University, TAFE, a traineeship/cadetship, apprenticeship or some other form of formal education/employment.
