Introduction

Queenwood School for Girls is a day school in Sydney's Mosman area for girls, established in 1925. The campus network includes the Junior School, Rennie Medway Campus, Lawrance Campus and the Art & Design Campus, with language labs, drama theatres, robotics labs and fine arts studios. The curriculum combines the Australian Curriculum in the Junior School with the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in the Senior School; Years 11–12 students may pursue either the HSC or IB Diploma. In the Junior School, core subjects are taught by specialist staff, with languages (French or Mandarin) beginning in Year 7 and a Latin or World Religions elective in Year 8. Foundational skills such as essay writing, research and information literacy are taught to support independent learning. A cocurricular program spans sport, arts and leadership, including debating, language exchanges and STEM activities; a Catalyst program supports high-potential learners and leadership opportunities throughout the school.
