St Leonard’s College is one of Australia’s oldest and most respected coeducational, independent schools. The facilities at St Leonard’s College provide a balanced blend of historic buildings filled with character and charm and superb, state-of-the-art facilities to support innovative teaching practices. Girls and boys can complete their entire education from pre-school to year 12 at the one campus in Brighton, giving all students a chance to be the best they can be, and importantly, a chance to be themselves. Our reputation rests not just on the outstanding academic achievements of students but also on our commitment to their long-term futures. St Leonard’s College promotes ‘depth and breadth’ learning, with a focus on the fundamentals, and a philosophy of providing an education for life.

Our community is strengthened by people of different faiths and non-faith beliefs who share our values and add to the richness of school life.
