High School Preparation Program

Our High School Preparation program prepares students (12 – 18 years old) for entry into the Australian High School System, by helping them to adapt to the tasks and assessment styles they will encounter in mainstream classes, either at St Paul’s School or another Australian School. Students in the High School Preparation program will develop their English skills through subjects including General English, Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening and Australian Studies. They will also participate in specialty subjects, which may include HPE, Food Technology, Drama, Music and Visual Art. These speciality subjects can change each semester. Individual student needs are catered for at all levels and excursions to places of interest are organised as reinforcement of the content of the course. Students attend a Tutor group in the main School every morning, to help them start preparing for their transition into the Main School.
