Cranbrook School (Sydney)

Cranbrook is an Anglican independent non-selective day and boarding school for boys, P–Year 12. We aim to discover each boy’s potential and develop his strengths. Because we believe that every boy is special, we provide motivation and challenge for those with academic or creative gifts, and comprehensive support for boys with learning needs.

The academic program is based on a structured teaching and learning framework in the Senior School and the International Baccalaureate’s Primary Years Programme in the Junior School. Reggio Emilia philosophy informs our approach to teaching and learning in the pre-schools and Early Learning Centre (K–Year 2). We encourage boys to think and act skilfully, creatively and responsibly.

Pastoral care Houses promote an environment in which boys feel safe, gain a sense of identity at the School, and become known and valued as individuals. There is a wide range of activities including sport, drama, music, debating, outdoor education and House activities. The boarding experience at Cranbrook teaches boys to be independent, responsible for themselves and responsible to the group so that they grow into mature and self-reliant young men.
