Transition to Coeducational High School in 2025
Randwick High School 2025
From 2025, Randwick Boys and Girls High Schools will combine to form a new co-educational high school in Randwick.
This follows comprehensive community consultation undertaken by the NSW Department of Education in the eastern suburbs school communities to better understand parent and student decision-making regarding high school enrolment choices.
The consultation found strong support for co-educational options, particularly among future parents. Approximately three-quarters of parents of primary school students stated they would prefer to send their child to a co-educational school.
The NSW Government has committed an additional $42 million to be invested at the current sites to make the new co-educational high school a modern fit-for-purpose facility. The investment will be designed to provide all students with the best possible learning environment. There are no plans to sell any portion of the existing school sites and all land in the current schools will be retained for use of the new school.
Whilst in 2025 the school will be co-educational, not all cohorts will have all co-educational classes from 2025 as a transition time will be required in particular for the year 12 2025 cohort. Care will be taken in the transition to ensure that HSC students are well supported during the changes. All current Stage 6 courses at the commencement of Randwick High School will be maintained through to students’ HSC examinations in 2025.
The schools would like to invite prospective parents and students to an information open night on Wednesday 6th March 2024 at 6pm. There will be a P&C BBQ from 5pm followed by formal proceedings in the Randwick Girls Hall, tours of the school led by students and staff, faculty displays, science and PDHPE demonstrations, music performances and more.
