The original Coburg High School was one of the first high schools in Melbourne and we have a long and proud history. Between 2007 and 2014 the school was known as Coburg Senior High School with an enrolment of students in Years 10-12. In 2015 Coburg High School was re-established as a Years 7 to 12 school with the inaugural group of Year 7 students. In 2023 there are over 1250 students enrolled at CHS and in 2024 we expect this to grow to around 1300 students. Attendance rates are above state average and student connection to the school is strong. The SFOE is 0.22 in 2023, indicating low levels of disadvantage overall.

Through the involvement of staff and students, in recent years a set of four core values have been established¿Excellence, Integrity, Curiosity and Community¿and these values underpin expected behaviours, policies, practices, communication and decision-making at the school.

We offer students a wide range of co-curricular programs including inter-school sport, music, drama, dance, student leadership, debating and public-speaking, science talent searches and fairs, mathematics competitions, art exhibitions, community service, camps, tours and a range of interest-based clubs.
