Selective high schools cater for academically gifted students with high potential who may otherwise be without sufficient classmates at their own academic standard. Selective high schools help these students to learn by grouping them with students of similar ability, and by using specialised teaching methods.
If you would like to have your child considered for Year 7 elective high school entry in 2025, you need to apply on the internet using a valid email address (not the student’s email address). For detailed instructions on how to apply please click the link below.
