School Based Management Review...
The Department of Education and Training is seeking feedback from the public to help evaluate and improve the effectiveness of School Based Management (SBM). School Based Management is designed to provide public schools with more flexibility in how they use resources to address priorities determined at the school level. The Allen Consulting Company has been appointed to undertake the review. For further information or to provide feedback please visit www.allenconsult.com.au/sbmreview

I truly hope you enjoy your visit to our wonderful school.
Lyneham Primary has a deserved reputation of a 'tradition of innovation'. Our challenge as educators within our diverse Preschool to Year 6 community is to design classrooms, working environments, teaching practices and learning experiences in such a way that each student's learning needs are individually recognised and catered for.
We at Lyneham believe that it is not the school or group which makes the difference for our students, but what happens within the school or group. As such, we work with our community to develop relationships and design motivating learning experiences to enable our students to build a spirit of enquiry and adventure, a desire to explore, to reach out and pursue excellence.
We hope you visit us regularly, to obtain further school information and updates
