At Guildford Grammar School, our students have agency in their own learning journey, they form the heart of all decisions, so they are free and empowered to choose their own story. They are encouraged to delve deeply, show rigor and embrace their inate curiosity and wonder. We want to create the ideal environment where each child is at the centre of their own learning.


We believe children should take ownership of their learning, have flexibility in their choices and use their voice to create their own adventures at Guildford Grammar School. As educators, we provide students with the tools, knowledge and confidence to achieve this. Our students feel valued for who they are, not solely what they are good at. We teach and reinforce the key fundamentals of learning every day through explicit teaching. These fundemantals are the crucial building blocks of learning and they require time, attention and revision each day.

We aim to go beyond the limitations of the curriculum with rich learning experiences and forward thinking. Rich learning is delivered through the inquiry model and enables our students to learn at their own pace and through meaningful engagement. This model cultivates curiosity, a relentless passion for investigation and a genuine fascination with learning. Together we find and explore tangents, routes, pathways and interests within learning to question the world. Each opportunity is assessed, appraised and analysed to scaffold your child’s education.

Learning Enrichment

At Guildford Grammar School, we understand that each child is different. Each child needs to learn at a different level and pace. It is not a one size fits all approach. We aim to know and understand our students in many ways so that we can provide the support or extension they require.

Our STRETCH program celebrates the gifts and talents and passions of our students. We recognise individuals who require extension, enrichment or acceleration in different areas and have developed our program to meet these unique needs.

Our educators differentiate content, processes, tasks and opportunities. Students can work with like-minded peers, take part in competitions and experience cocurricular programs such as OptiMinds. Our specialist staff work in collaboration with teachers, parents and students to develop their individual profiles so we can challenge, extend and inspire exceptional and personalised learning.

Learning Support
 
We understand that each child is different. Each child needs to learn at a different level and pace. It is not a one size fits all approach. We aim to know and understand our students in many ways so that we can provide the support or extension they require.

Our team of specialist teachers and education assistants provide support for students who experience difficulty in their learning, using many different strategies and programs, each one specific to the needs of the child.
