Glenwood High School has a well-deserved reputation for innovation and excellence. It is a place where diversity is celebrated and every student is valued and appreciated. I believe that a school community should be a tapestry of music, art, sport, student leadership, conversation and academic endeavour.
Our comprehensive curriculum offers a broad choice of subjects and courses to meet a wide range of individual student interests, talent and ability. Our dedicated teaching staff value the professional challenge of striving to ensure each student has every opportunity to achieve success. Our academic results are very strong. We are determined that this is a priority. The least we can do for all of our students is to expect that they achieve at the highest level, no matter their starting point.
I believe the old adage that it takes a village to raise good productive members of society. This is very much the case at Glenwood. With over 1400 students in the school we are like a small village. We pride ourselves on reaching every individual as much as possible. We try hard to tailor our time, our resources and our programs so that every student is known, valued and cared for. This is because we believe that good relationships and partnerships are the cornerstones to good communication and learning.
At Glenwood we recognise the individual needs and aspirations of every student and take pride in successfully nurturing young people to become confident, articulate and responsible citizens and leaders in a world that is in constant flux.
The many additional opportunities offered by the school ensure a variety of experiences to inspire and motivate students to be informed, active and resilient young men and women.
