Learning at our school

The curriculum we offer North Sydney boys is carefully designed to meet the needs of gifted and talented students.

It is continually reviewed and improved to meet the ever changing needs of today's students.

For detailed information on our curriculum please download our booklet Information for Prospective Students and their Families.

The NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) is responsible for the curriculum, Kindergarten to Year 12, for all NSW schools.

For the high school years, NESA develops syllabuses for all subjects in 8 key learning areas:

  • creative arts
  • English
  • human society and its environment (HSIE)
  • languages
  • mathematics
  • personal development, health and physical education (PDHPE)
  • science
  • technological and applied studies (TAS).

NSW schools also offer special religious education and special education in ethics via approved providers, where available.

Like all NSW schools, we have developed teaching and learning programs to suit our local context and the needs of our students.
