The school's mission statement "Preparing Your Child Today for Tomorrow" encapsulates the philosophy under which the school operates. Parents, students and staff work together to meet the needs of all students in an ever changing world. The time spent at school is the time when students are provided with the opportunity to establish a basis for life-long learning. Batlow Central School caters for students from Kindergarten to Year 12, and continues to strive for a standard of excellence in all fields of endeavour - academic, sporting, musical, artistic and extra curricula activities, in an environment highly conducive to learning. Students are the focus of the school's curriculum which is determined in partnership with the community in which our students live.
