Position Information

Bowral is the largest town in the Southern Highlands, about 90 minutes southwest of Sydney. Bowral High School acknowledges its location on Gundungurra Land and was established at this site in 1929. It is a comprehensive high school with a virtual selective stream (Aurora) and a support unit of seven classes. The student enrolment of 616 includes 75 Aboriginal students and an increasing number of culturally and linguistically diverse students. The school has a Family Occupation and Educational Index of 107 and serves families from Bowral, Mittagong and the northern villages of the Southern Highlands. We are a High Potential Gifted Education partner school and are invested to inspire, motivate and challenge all students by delivering quality instruction that enables all students to access opportunities to meet their potential and extend their talent in one or more of the following domains: intellectual, physical, creative and social-emotional. Through effective partnerships, Bowral High School has collaborated with primary school partners to strengthen high school transition and with the broader community to build successful pathways beyond school, including work experience, vocational education and training, school-based traineeships and apprenticeships, university access and TAFE. All students are known, valued, and cared for and student wellbeing is underpinned by Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) and Restorative Practice.
