Randwick Boys High School

Randwick Boys' High School, located in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, draws a comprehensive cohort of students from very diverse backgrounds. Approximately 60% of students come from a language background other than English - over 65 languages are represented among the student body. The school's mission is to develop the talents of each student through the provision of high quality educational, sporting, cultural and leadership opportunities where it has a strong history of success. The school recognises the diverse cultural and socio-economic backgrounds of its students and the roles these play in shaping student learning. Its proactive welfare programs support all students in their growth to manhood. Student centred and student driven curriculum offer the widest possible range of subjects to engage students at all levels. The school offers the full suite of Extension courses for the HSC. School strengths include university entrance (over 85% of students applying for university are successful), chess, involvement in the School Show at NIDA Theatres, sporting excellence (many old boys have represented Australia in their chosen sports) and high levels of technology in educational programs. Performance data in NAPLAN consistently shows that the school performs at an above average level against boys' non-selective schools. Achievement in numeracy is a particular strength. A caring community, Randwick Boys' High School is proud to stand as a public school, with exceptional support of a dedicated parent body.

Maintenance

To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. The Department also reviews the planned maintenance program for each school every year and reviews those items that are predicted to require work to help prolong the life of the school buildings and facilities.

Demountables

Demountables have been part of the NSW education system for many decades and will continue to be used across the state. Demountable classrooms are modern, air-conditioned rooms that provide students and teaching staff with excellent quality facilities. The learning spaces have the same range of technology that is available in permanent spaces. We review school accommodation needs each year, looking at changing enrolment patterns and other factors to prepare for the upcoming school year. This helps to identify schools that need new demountables and schools where they can removed. Most demountable movement takes place between October and February and we report our annual demountable statistics each April. Additional demountable installations can occur outside this window to support capital works and maintenance projects in schools or emergency responses to natural disasters.

We recognise the Ongoing Custodians of the lands and waterways where we work and live. We pay respect to Elders past and present as ongoing teachers of knowledge, songlines and stories. We strive to ensure every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learner in NSW achieves their potential through education.
