Accelerated Learning Program from 7-9 launched for 2024

Parents who are interested in our Accelerated Learning Program staring in Year 7 next year, can find out more by visiting our website and downloading a parent information brochure and application form. Applications are open to the front office now

Student Eligibility

Accelerated Learning Programs are not for all students and whilst they can be rewarding, they can also be challenging as students will be expected to be self-motivated and independent learners. Two key parts of the program will be increased workload and faster curriculum coverage in the early years of secondary school and students must be prepared to engage positively with this extra challenge. The ALP program is suited to students who:

- Are engaged by academic challenge

- Enjoy problem solving

- Are mature and committed to their learning

- Are motivated to achieve excellence

- Enjoy working alongside like-minded peers

- Thrive in independent and collaborative learning

How do I apply?

The application process for the 2024 Year 7 GHS ALP class involves testing by EduTest in the following areas:
