My children are academic 鈥� is 51小湿妹 the school for them?
Parents should take into account a number of qualities when selecting a school. Two questions to ask when investigating the academic standing of any school are:
- How do the top students at this College compare with those from other leading schools?
- How does the average performance of all students at this College compare with that from other leading schools?
Our record in national literacy and numeracy tests and international competitions reveals superior performance.
Several of our Year 12 students have won the Australian Government Student Prize at exit, indicating they were in the top 100 in Queensland and the top 500 in Australia that academic year.
We publish a full disclosure of all senior results since 1992 (when the present system of tertiary entrance was instituted), so parents can judge average results. We provide regular updates on any public test results for our students.

Responsible for the pastoral care program are a number of staff specifically chosen for their skills in helping students deal with any difficulty.

Our student leaders, College Student Presidents, provide role models for all students but especially the Secondary students.
