A private school that teaches in Wiradjuri language, Sydney kids taking on NASA-led groups in robotics, suburban kids taking university courses at school, and a not-for-profit school providing holistic education and support for students with autism. This is Australia’s fast-growing Independent School sector, where one in five students is educated.
Thanks to the Independent Schools Association, all the schools for their input, and Anne-Maree Gale and the legends at The Australian’s commercial team for allowing me to help with this year’s Independent Schools Guide. I always learn heaps and come away with a greater appreciation for the way schools are innovating. One of the great benefits of being an education content writer.
