Academic Excellence Program

Everton Park State High School strives to give all students opportunities to develop to the best of their abilities in academic, social and cultural fields. Our Academic Excellence Program for students in years 7 through 9 provides an academically challenging curriculum that requires students to collaborate, and to think critically and creatively; skills that have been identified as essential to achieve success in the 21st century.

Program Focus: Critical and Creative Thinking

Critical and creative thinking enriches learning through the development of skills, behaviours and dispositions such as: reasoning, logical thought, resourcefulness, imagination and innovation, all of which can be applied in classroom learning experiences and in their lives beyond school.
