Patrician Brothers' College Fairfield is a Catholic systemic secondary boys' comprehensive school within the Archdiocese of Sydney, Patrician Brothers' College has a diverse ethnic community with a significant portion of the student population from a background other than English. The College strives for excellence within the charism and tradition of the Patrician Religious Order. The dedicated and professional staff work collaboratively to ensure that each child attains his potential spiritually, academically and socially. Specialist programs in ESL, gifted education and acceleration are integrated within the curriculum. A significant feature of the College is its strong pastoral care and leadership programs. Opportunities exist for students to develop leadership responsibility via the Prefect and House System, SRC, Homeroom Captains, Peer Support and Breastplate Social Justice. Parent involvement is welcomed and strong. The College has strong links with the community and an outstanding reputation for academic, sporting and cultural success. This is evident in our NSW Higher School Certificate (HSC) results and extra-curricular activities such as Debating and Public Speaking.
