A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

OUTSTANDING YEAR 9 NAPLAN SUCCESS AT SHAILER PARK STATE HIGH

I would like to share with our school community the dramatic gains that have been recorded amongst our Year 9 students on their NAPLAN tests. The relatively unprecedented gains have now positioned Shailer Park High as a leading high school in Logan based on Year 9 NAPLAN results.

Importantly, the school has recorded significant gains in all areas assessed by the tests which show our strong commitment to each and every child. Below is a summary showing the large nature of the gains recorded.

MATCHING & EXCEEDING HIGH FEE-PAYING SCHOOLS

Shailer Park State High’s 2015 results matched or exceeded those of many private school options. We are working very hard to deliver on our promise of doing everything we can for your child’s education. The table below shows our performance relative to some local private options. It shows that we can deliver a quality education, without charging thousands of dollars in fees. We have the programs in place and the commitment to deliver success for our students.

As you can see, we are very proud of our students and their achievements. Their results reflect their commitment to their studies, and the hard work of their teachers. I feel very confident that, with hard work and determination, we can build vibrant futures for our students.
