East Sydney Community-Based High School targets those students who have experienced difficulty accessing the mainstream system for a variety of reasons. The school respects individual difference and believes that every person has the right to an education. Staff members work to remove the obstacles that stand between the students and their ability to access education.
Facilities: Science and computer laboratories.
Sport: Physical education program, indoor rock climbing, windsurfing, swimming, basketball.
Welfare and personal development: Each student has a staff key worker who assists with meeting welfare needs (such as health, accommodation, legal and financial) and acts in loco parentis when the student has no other adults in their life. East Sydney High offers a supportive environment in which personal responsibility and life skills are encouraged and fostered.
