Why families choose us
The Accelerated Advantage
Sydney Tech has deliberately redesigned the learning journey for high potential students. Our whole-cohort acceleration program gives every student early experience of Stage 6 curriculum, expectations and scholarship, while creating additional flexibility and opportunity across their senior years.
High potential and gifted education by design
High potential education is our core business. Differentiation, extension, enrichment and acceleration are embedded across classrooms, faculties and co-curricular opportunities, with students learning alongside highly able peers in an environment of high expectations.
Opportunity and agency
Tech students have extraordinary scope to pursue their interests and create their own pathways through leadership, competition, performance, service, sport and Clubs@Tech. Student voice actively shapes what our school offers.
Expertise that inspires excellence
The strength of a school lies in the people who shape its culture and bring its educational vision to life. Our staff share a commitment to rigorous teaching, high expectations and the development of each student's intellectual and personal capabilities.
'Every individual has the right to realise himself: that is to fully develop the power and capacities, physical, mental, moral and spiritual; with which nature endowed him'.
− JA Williams, 1912 (first Principal of Sydney Technical High School)
