**Position Information**:
Yass High School is situated 50 km from the ACT in one of the fastest growing rural areas in NSW, leading to greater diversity in our community. There have been significant upgrades and infrastructure projects including a Trade Skills Centre, state of the art STEM building and a multi-purpose Hall. The current total enrolment is approximately 525, with significant growth in Year 7-10 and Support classes. A Pathways Class was established in 2021 to offer an alternative educational program for Stage 5 students who identify employment or a trade as a post-school goal. The percentage of enrolled students who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander is increasing (currently 9%), with improving retention into and successful completion of Year 12. There are a small number of EAL/D students (less than 5%) and this is also increasing as new families move into the area.
Preparing our diverse range of students through the provision of a broad curriculum with pathways towards higher education and skill-based employment careers is an expectation of our community. They value the strong partnerships between the school and local business groups to promote community engagement, civic pride and personal values.
The rural setting of the school gives a significant focus on Agriculture and Primary Industries. Students participate in a range of sports at local, regional and state competitions. Creative and Performing Arts, Gifted and Talented programs and VET (Vocational and Educational) courses provide opportunities for students to achieve personalised goals. Our community partners support students to develop civic values and positive community behaviours.
Our significant school improvement focus is on Student Growth and Attainment, High Expectations Culture and Educational Leadership. The strategic improvement plan will be supported by a range of equity funding, including Aboriginal background, socio-economic background and low-level adjustment for disability.
