Deception Bay Flexible School (DBFS) is a place where young people can complete their secondary education in a welcoming, supportive, engaging and flexible environment.
We are committed to building genuine, respectful relationships with young people and their families, recognising and celebrating the unique strengths, dignity and potential of every student.
Our rich and inclusive learning program is delivered by a dedicated team of educators, youth workers and wellbeing staff. Students have access to outstanding facilities, including a large sports hall, a professional music studio, a parent room and a fully equipped manual arts workshop.
The safety and wellbeing of children and young people are at the heart of everything we do. We are deeply committed to creating a school community where every young person feels safe, respected, valued and included.
Child safeguarding is a shared responsibility and a core priority at DBFS. We maintain robust policies, procedures and practices to ensure our school remains a safe and supportive environment for all students.
Central to our approach is the belief that young people should have a voice in decisions that affect them. We actively promote student voice and agency, empowering students to contribute to the life of the school and their own learning.
Our child safeguarding framework is regularly reviewed and updated to ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements and best-practice standards.
