Miami State School provides high quality education from prep to year 6. The campus is located in the suburb of Mermaid Waters on the Gold Coast. Our school was established in 1979. The education community at Miami State School believes in creating a nurturing and safe learning culture to engage children’s natural curiosity where children enjoy their education, build friendships and achieve their best. As a team we do this by providing quality learning experiences that use individualised and differentiated curriculum and teaching; innovating with futures thinking and digital technologies for a rapidly changing and networked society; developing specialised programs, class structures and educational solutions that are creative and flexible to achieve our goals; and encouraging students to take responsibility for their own achievement through personal application.

The school's central purpose is to provide learning experiences and opportunities which enable all students to gain access to knowledge and develop the skills required for full, active and fruitful participation in society. The school values and encourages students to strive for excellence in all areas of human growth. Literacy skill development has continued to be a focus of the school. This focus has been supported by the Disadvantaged Schools Program. Student learning is a feature of the school. It is achieved through participation in a whole school plan which provides individual support and allows for a degree of specialisation by members of staff. So too is the students' involvement in environmental care, exposure to a range of sporting and fitness activities, their access to internet technology and their involvement in a Korean language program. The school is an integral part of the Tyalgum community and acknowledges the valued support it receives from them.
