  • School Performance Information 2017
    SCHOOL PERFORMANCE INFORMATION 2017 As part of the compliance requirements of the Australian Government’s Schools Assistance Regulations 2009 (made under the Schools Assistance Act 2008), all schools are required to ensure that School Performance Information is made publicly available as stipulated by subsection 21 (2) of the Act. 1. CONTEXTUAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE SCHOOL Geelong Grammar School is an independent Anglican co-educational boarding and day school. From its origins in 1855, the School has always had a distinctive character. After outgrowing several Geelong locations the School moved to a 245-hectare site on the edge of Corio Bay in 1914, creating the unique learning and living environment that exists today. In 1953 it established Timbertop, a remote campus in the foothills of the Victorian Alps inspired by the philosophies of German educator Kurt Hahn. Timbertop provides the School’s Year 9 students with a full school year living, working and studying in the Australian bush, where they connect to their personal strengths, develop confidence and learn the value of co-operative endeavour. The School became co-educational in the early 1970s, enabling boys and girls to live and learn alongside each other. In 2009, it introduced its transformational Positive Education programme. Developed from the science of Positive Psychology in collaboration with Professor Martin Seligman and his team from the University of Pennsylvania, Positive Education focuses on social and emotional wellbeing, encouraging students to find purpose and lead engaged and meaningful lives. Positive Education is taught at each year level, at every campus and across all aspects of school life.
