Since opening in 1961, Sefton High School continues to be proud that we provide a rich learning environment where students achieve excellence in all fields of endeavour. In 1989 Sefton High School became the first partially selective school in NSW.
We have very high expectations that every student strives for excellence in education by giving their personal best to every experience within an ethical framework of integrity and responsibility.
Parents partnering the school in a symbiotic relationship based on mutual trust and respect underpins the growth and attainment of every student. We therefore nurture and value respectful relationships with and between peers, school staff, parents and friends of the school.
Inspiring our students to value life-long learning and instilling in them a curiosity, will enable them to embrace new challenges. We support student learning in the intellectual, creative and social domains whilst nurturing their passions as they develop from guided learners to autonomous and self-regulated young people ready to adapt to any situation that awaits them beyond the gates.
Sefton High School achieves academic excellence through explicit and rigorous teaching in a traditional and structured environment supported by enhanced wellbeing programs. This ensures students gain entry to the most sought-after university degrees and access pathways most suited to their diverse talents and aptitudes. Our students leave us as responsible young adults ready to make an impact on the world around them, equipped to make meaningful contributions to society.
