St Paul's is an inclusive Catholic community that strives to empower students to become lifelong learners.
Our new Learning Framework provides a shared vision and language of learning to help students reach their highest potential and, as a learning community, always strive to do our best. The design of the framework encompasses our key principles of faith, community, lifelong learning, empowerment, diversity, inclusivity and collaboration.

Inspired learning starts with highly motivated and professional teachers
Like you, we know that great teachers make a real difference in a child’s life. Our teachers are lifelong learners too and regularly undertake professional development to keep up to date with current best practice in education. Our expert teachers will tailor teaching to meet your child at their point of need, track how they are progressing, and respond with extra support when needed.
Every child is different and so is his learning journey.
We put the growth of each individual child at the heart of schooling. Schools in the Diocese of Parramatta are places of wonder, exploration and endless possibilities.
St Pauls welcomes and truly values each student in our diverse and multicultural learning community. Each child’s unique strengths and needs guide the design of the learning opportunities we provide to our students.
The learning journey at St Paul's honours the developmental stages in a student’s life. Based on leading educational research and the best of today’s technologies, we prepare students for the workplaces of the future by teaching them how to think critically and creatively, how to communicate effectively and how to work collaboratively.
After all, learning how to learn is equally important as what we learn!
Our Learning Spaces
The learning spaces at St Pauls are designed to enhance the learning opportunities of our students. From the latest technology to flexible seating options and adaptable class sizes, students will learn how to work both independently and as part of a small or large group depending on the task at hand.

Learning Opportunities Beyond St Pauls College
Vocational Education
Studying a VET course in Year 11 and/or Year 12 provides students with the opportunity to work in partnership with industry across a broad range of courses with on-site work placements in addition to their regular HSC subjects.
School of Now
This innovative program enables Year 11 and 12 students across different schools to access courses not available in their own school. The unique learning experience uses a blended learning format of virtual and face-to-face teaching. Students learn from an expert teacher with specialist knowledge and experience in supporting HSC students.
Endless Possibilities with Learning Partners
Our learning approach makes a welcome space for parents, carers and other valued partners to engage with our learners in a deeply personalised, anywhere, anytime approach to learning.
As part of a system of Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta, we also benefit from formal agreements with many institutions that form a wide network of strategic relationships and collaborations to advance research, teaching and innovation in Catholic schools across Greater Western Sydney.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education
Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese (CSPD) recognises and respects the heritage, spirituality, cultures and deep connection to Country of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
An understanding of Aboriginal spirituality is incorporated into Religious Education programs, prayer and liturgy.
