Our fundamental purpose at Kew High School is to create the young adults we want our students to become with the values, knowledge, skills and dispositions to participate in a rewarding future. To this end we provide a stimulating and secure learning environment focussed on challenge and engagement and involving a wide network of community partnerships. Kew High School has 70.3 equivalent full time teaching staff, including three Principal class and eleven leading teachers. Student wellbeing is a priority at Kew High. We recognise that building strong, positive relationships is essential for both optimal learning and wellbeing and place an emphasis on this within and outside the classrooms. Our CONNECT program and our use of restorative practices as our model for behaviour management further support relationship development, build community, promote connectedness and enhance student learning and wellbeing. Our staff is committed to a whole school focus on learning and teaching. Everything we do connects back to this. A balanced and diverse range of subjects and extra curricular programs are available to allow students to build on their strengths and interests and to choose and complete an appropriate pathway. Our international program includes a language centre catering for year 10 students and the integration of students into VCE which adds to our cultural diversity of over thirty nationalities represented in the student cohort.
