Canberra Grammar School

Member School

Established in 1929, Canberra Grammar School is a co-educational Independent Anglican School offering outstanding academic education, co-curricular opportunities and pastoral care to day and boarding students of all backgrounds and faiths within a community guided by Christian values.

At Canberra Grammar School, we aspire for our students to be curious, creative, confident and compassionate citizens of the world.

The School respects and nurtures all students as individuals, seeking to inspire, support and celebrate the efforts of all in realising their intellectual, spiritual, cultural, social and physical aspirations. CGS is the only co-educational boarding school in the ACT, is an International Baccalaureate World School and is the only school in the ACT to offer the NSW Higher School Certificate.

In a world shaped by globalisation, environmental change and technological advancement, our students will live, study and work in both Australia and abroad in ways that we can scarcely imagine. They will collaborate with colleagues across cultures and disciplines to solve problems using tools that we have yet to invent. To flourish, they must have the critical capacity to analyse complex information, the ability to communicate in multiple languages, the adaptive creativity to find solutions, and the integrity to serve others always before self. Our strategic plans in conjunction with our academic, pastoral and co-curricular education support that goal.

Building on the professional expertise of its staff, the commitment of its community and the resources of the nation’s capital, Canberra Grammar School aims to be the most dynamic and distinctive centre of learning in Australia.
