Our results are consistently very good across the range of subjects - humanities, arts & sciences - Because we are a small school there can be substantial variation from year to year - Some students gain exceptional results in particular subjects & exceptional ATAR scores. Most students exceed their own goals - A small school with committed, inspiring teachers is the ideal environment for students who have high academic aspirations, as well as for students who need support to remain at school.
In a school with a small number of students in each age group, multiple aged groups expand children's social and learning horizons - Learning with older and younger students is beneficial for students who have particular gifts and talents, as well as for those who have particular needs and learning difficulties. In our experience, children can't be divided into "gifted and talented" and "special needs" groups - Specific skills classes (e.g., maths, writing) are taught in small single age groups.
