Randwick High School
**Randwick High School** is a new co-educational public secondary school in Randwick, a suburb in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Set to open in 2025, the school merges Randwick Boys High School and Randwick Girls High School, aiming to meet local community preferences for a co-educational environment. The school is part of the NSW Department of Education's broader move towards providing more co-educational options across the state【12†source】【13†source】.
#### History
The NSW Department of Education announced the formation of Randwick High School after extensive consultations. Many parents and local stakeholders supported a co-educational model, seeing it as beneficial for educational and social development. This merger seeks to meet community needs while supporting modern educational values of inclusivity and collaboration. The unified Randwick High School will uphold the traditions of both Randwick Boys and Randwick Girls High Schools【12†source】【13†source】.
#### Campus and Facilities
Randwick High School’s campus will feature newly upgraded facilities through a $42 million government investment, set to be fully realized by 2027. This includes cutting-edge classrooms, a gymnasium, science and technology laboratories, performing arts venues, and flexible learning spaces. Outdoor areas, including landscaped playgrounds, will provide a stimulating environment for student recreation and socialization【13†source】【14†source】.
#### Academic and Extracurricular Programs

The school is dedicated to fostering both academic excellence and personal growth, encouraging students to realize their potential and pursue diverse post-secondary pathways【13†source】【14†source】.
#### Transition Process
The establishment of Randwick High School as a co-educational institution is supported by a transitional framework to assist students, staff, and families. Special provisions are in place for Year 11 and Year 12 students, allowing them continuity and minimal disruption as they prepare for their Higher School Certificate (HSC) examinations. The NSW Department of Education is facilitating the transition by engaging the school community in shaping the school’s final name, uniform, and other cultural aspects【13†source】【14†source】.
#### Vision and Community Engagement
The school embraces the motto "Learning Today, Leading Tomorrow," reflecting its commitment to fostering leadership and learning.
