Home Hill State High School prides itself on delivering high quality secondary education. The school provides quality education to all learners, whether they are students with special needs or students receiving State and National awards. As a result of its focus on student outcomes and flexible pathways, the school has a proud and respected record of student achievement. In the junior school, curriculum variety is offered through a combination of compulsory and elective subject offerings designed to meet the personal requirements of learners. Throughout the school the learning of students is enhanced by support from specialist teaching staff and integrated curriculum programs targeting literacy and numeracy skills.
Multiple curriculum pathways are offered in the senior school despite our relatively small size. Students are provided with a range of Queensland
Curriculum and Assessment Authority General & Applied subject options. There
is considerable curriculum depth to allow for personalisation of curriculum
choices, for example, we offer two English options, three Mathematics subjects
as well as a variety of Science, Humanities, Business, Technology, Physical
Education and Arts subjects. Vocational Education and Training is available
through the school with Certificate II in Sport & Recreation on offer. Virtual Schooling and Distance Education
programs provide students with the opportunity to study in subject areas not
currently offered at a classroom level.
The school maintains strong partnerships with the local TAFE, providing further opportunity for students to enrol in the VET in Schools program in a variety of courses. Many students elect to undertake these certificate programs. A number of students choose to begin a school based apprenticeship and traineeship.
At Home Hill State High School we pride ourselves on the curriculum delivered to students and our outstanding academic record.
