Offering highly-driven and ambitious students a senior secondary experience like no other. Based in the heart of the Powerhouse/TAFE/UTS/ ’Innovation and Technology’ Precinct and with access to a global network and support – students will be immersed in an environment that allows them to understand and explore first-hand the myriad paths that lay before them – local and international; undergrad, post-grad and beyond – and which will provide an unmatchable, tangible context for their studies, university options and career planning.
Part of Westbourne’s mission is to make STEM & Business careers more attractive and appealing to the widest possible student base. In particular, not enough young women are pursuing STEM careers. Westbourne will provide a small-class, highly supportive, gender-balanced environment for all of our students to shine and succeed. A number of cultural, gender and socio-economic scholarships will be awarded to ensure that we have a balanced intake reflecting Sydney’s unique make-up and diversity.
The IB is unparalleled in its ability to prepare students for university studies and for truly global careers. It really is the ‘gold standard’ in secondary education and is recognised as such all around the world. Success in the IB opens door to the very best universities around the world. 90% of Westbourne UK students gain places at the UK’s top universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, Kings College and UCL.
Westbourne Sydney students, Year 10-12, will have access to the same expert university guidance and support as their UK peers. We will also be developing a special collaboration with UTS, USYD and UNSW which are just on our doorstep or a short light rail ride away.
Westbourne does not aim to be all things to all people. Westbourne students will already have made their choice to pursue global careers in STEM &/or Business-related sectors. Our subjects have been selected to ensure that they achieve this goal.
