Overview

Jerrabomberra High School is a new school which opened in 2023. In 2026 our anticipated enrolment will be 420 students. We are a comprehensive, co-educational high school proudly located in the township of Jerrabomberra on the border of NSW and the ACT, only 15km from Canberra International Airport and a short drive to the Snowy Mountains or to the South Coast.

Jerrabomberra High School commenced with Year 7 and Year 8 in 2023, with the school being Year 7 to Year 12 by 2027. Our curriculum is innovative, framed through an inquiry and project-based learning approach. We continue to be innovative and have designed our curriculum to allow students to learn and engage in modern, well-resourced and future-focused learning spaces. Our culture is truly inclusive, centred on ensuring every student is able to co-design their learning journey which aligns to their skills, interests and aspirations. Our school provides a learning environment based on high expectations, and the belief that all students will grow in their time at Jerrabomberra High School. We also offer the Big Picture Learning design as an option for students in year 9 and above. We are conscious of our role within the local and broader community, working closely with parents/carers and other community agencies to support student's academic, emotional and social development. Students will develop real life, entrepreneurial skills to equip them with the skills, knowledge and attitudes to best navigate their individual journey in a fast-changing world. As a school we will build the capacity of all staff to promote and develop their pedagogical practice to ensure high expectations, positive behaviours and individualised success is achieved for all students.

Our supported learning setting (Thrive) is committed to meeting the individual needs and goals of each student. All students have a Personalised Learning and Support Plan (PLaSP) that is negotiated with the student, parents, carers and relevant stakeholders at the commencement of the year and reviewed annually. Our Thrive setting is comprised of three support classes, each with support from our full-time school learning support officers (SLSOs). As part of this team, you will develop and implement innovative programs and ensure suitable learning supports are in place for all our students.
