Durong South State School is currently made up of two multi-age classroom consisting of students from Kindergarten to Year 2 and Year 3 to Year 6.

The teaching principal is supported by 4 part-time teachers, 1 full-time teacher aide, 2 part-time teacher aides, an administration officer, grounds person, cleaner and volunteer staff who work on a regular basis.
Our school prides itself on the development of our young people and our motto, 'Progress Through Learning', encapsulates our philosophy of teaching. Being a small school with multi-age classes, our teaching practices need to be varied and flexible to ensure that we abide by our mission statement, that, every day, in every lesson, every student is learning and achieving.
The school works collaboratively with the P&C association to make valuable connections between the school and the broader community. The Durong South P&C association are dedicated to supporting various school initiatives and programs.
