Position Context

**Hume Anglican Grammar** is an independent, multi-campus, co-educational and Anglican
Diocesan School offering education from Prep to Year 12 in the Northern growth corridor of Melbourne.

We aim to provide our students with an education that prepares them for the challenges of life, equips

them to contribute to the community in an environment based on Christian values and at a cost

affordable to as many families as possible. It is our fundamental belief that young people who are

genuinely happy will engage, aspire and thrive within our learning community. By establishing high

standards in all that we do, every student is encouraged and supported to discover and fulfil their

unique potential.

Hume Anglican Grammar has an open enrolment policy so educates children from many faiths and

with a diverse range of backgrounds and abilities. It has a strong sense of inclusivity and a community
- minded focus. We are a progressive school, not just in the development of buildings and grounds, but

also in innovative thinking and advancements in our approach to teaching and learning. This is led by

a group of dedicated and expert teachers who practise their craft with skill, and by building the

strongest of relationships with our students. It is not by chance that we have young people who readily

display warmth, humour and respect for one another and their teachers.

Since 2011, the School has occupied the Mt Ridley P-12 campus of 10 hectares, this site will ultimately

have some 1,400 students. In 2019, it opened an 8-hectare second campus in Donnybrook.

Commencing with junior primary, each year additional classes and year levels are added so the

campus will ultimately have an enrolment of 1,600 from Prep to Year 12. At Donnybrook, the first cohort

of Year 7 have commenced, so inaugural secondary students.

In 2023, the School opened its third campus in Kalkallo, as a Primary (P-6) school and as feeder to the Mt

Ridley and Donnybrook Secondary schools, it will follow a similar growth pattern to Donnybrook with

eventually some 600 students.

This year, the school has 2,287 students and employs some 240 staff - 163 teaching and 77 non-teaching.

Currently, the student enrolment at each campus is: Mt Ridley 1,400, Donnybrook 672 & Kalkallo 215.

The school is on a growth trajectory and in 2024 is projected to increase to 2,573 students (Mt Ridley

1,400, Donnybrook 840 & Kalkallo 305) and ultimately have some 3,600 students (Mt Ridley 1,400,

Donnybrook 1,600 and Kalkallo 600) with a corresponding cohort of teaching and general staff on its

three campuses with plans for further expansion.
