Stuart Davis, St Leonard's Principal

St Leonard's College is a friendly, vibrant and highly motivated community that enjoys the reputation of being one of the most respected and admired coeducational independent schools in Australia.   Renowned for inclusivity and an ability to educate the whole person - 'head, heart and soul' - we understand that the education of young people is not only a responsibility but a privilege.

The academic curriculum is the core around which life at St Leonard's College is built.  We employ the very best of Australian curriculum initiatives with a focus on international mindedness across all age groups which is complemented by our engagement in the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme and the International Baccalaureate Diploma. 
 
Our programs support and promote the values of openness and tolerance.  The diversity of our offering enhances our ability to recognise the multiple intelligences that our students possess.
 
Most importantly we recognise that a great school isn't just about grades; it's about creativity, it's about engagement in a broad cocurricular offering, it's about friendship, it's about young men and women living and working together in harmony, it's about fun, it's about embracing new opportunities, it's about developing open and enquiring minds and nurturing the character and courage to make a valuable contribution in a changing world.  St Leonard's is a school that understands that 'what matters most' in achieving these outcomes is quality teaching, supported by strategic teacher professional development. 
 
St Leonard's College is committed to employing, developing and retaining the very best teachers.
I trust that this website will provide you with a sense of the dynamic and caring environment that exists at our College and that you will visit us to experience for yourself the energy and enthusiasm that makes St Leonard's so special.
 

If you would like to visit our school, I encourage you to book a tour and come and see the facilities, programs and educational opportunities St Leonard's College can offer your child.

I look forward to meeting you.
