**Additional School Information (Optional)**
Keira High School is a high performing comprehensive, coeducational high school in North Wollongong proudly serving the local community. The learning community is enriched by a diverse student population of 780 and significantly includes 43 students of Aboriginal heritage.

Through our Situational Analysis we have identified key focus areas to enable the learner and to enable high impact teaching to occur. Building strong networks of support to develop the highest levels of both wellbeing and attendance for all students is a prime focus. All students will be explicitly guided to experience genuine agency within their own learning. A focus on delivering the enabling conditions for every classroom at Keira to be highly effective learning environment will focus on explicit and high impact professional learning and professional collaboration.

The school enjoys strong partnerships with the Keira Community of Schools and promotes itself as the local high school of choice for families living in Mt Pleasant, Balgownie, Fairy Meadow, Mt Ousley, North Wollongong and Coniston.

A Keira student enjoys success through a range of learning opportunities not limited only through academic achievement, but also in creative and the performing arts, sport, civics and citizenship and student voice. Optimal wellbeing is valued as an overarching framework and the school drives a scope and sequence of programs promoting cognitive, spiritual, social, emotional and physical wellbeing.

Personalised learning supports all students and a network of engagement and support is explicitly facilitated across the curriculum. Deliberate programs that target the successful transition of all learners into the secondary setting are complemented by an innovative and dynamic curriculum that challenges all students. We are proud leaders in Aboriginal Education and are committed to delivering innovative whole school Aboriginal Education programs. Our relationship with the Aboriginal community is vital and we respect the guidance we have been given in shaping our learning programs.

A highly professional staff enthusiastically engages the Performance and Development Framework in targeting enhanced pedagogical practice. Mentoring, collaboration and coaching are embedded as drivers across the school to facilitate the sharing of professional practice and support all staff to meet, maintain and seek higher levels of professional teaching standards.

Keira confidently holds its place within an elite group of education providers that stretch from the foot of the Illawarra escarpment to the shores of the Tasman Sea. Alliances with the University of Wollongong, Conservatorium of Music, Innovation Campus and Tafe Illawarra enhance the school's capacity to engage in learning programs, academic research and curriculum opportunities for both its students and teachers. Service organisations, business and industry links further enhance the learning options, entrepreneurial experiences and civic pathways beyond the classroom.
