Position Information

Kandos High School is in the picturesque Capertee Valley bordering the Wollemi National Park and relies on local industry centred on agriculture, tourism and mining. Our school has proudly educated students from the local towns of Kandos, Rylstone and the surrounding communities at the Fleming Street site since 1929. The school and students are supported by strong connections to our local community, who actively support our many initiatives throughout the year. Our current enrolment is 170 students, including 21 Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander students. There is a strong focus on literacy and numeracy, effective use of future‑focused skills and individualised learning supported with innovative teaching and learning strategies. Kandos High School has a focus on HPGE and has initiated a Self‑Select Class and offers opportunities for extension in learning areas and via extra‑curricular activities. Our school has a Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) foundation based on the values of being respectful, responsible and building positive relationships. Academic, cultural, sporting and vocational courses are offered through core and elective options. Kandos High School has developed a number of significant projects that give greater depth to the learning context of the school including a Creating Links to Industry Program (CLIP) supporting alternate learning pathways for our students. This is aligned with strong wellbeing programs to ensure all our students are achieving their potential and develop into informed, confident and resilient young people.
