Cornell High School aims to assist our International
students to develop the knowledge
and skills required to  function
in a new country, culture, language and education
system. We are committed to ensuring that our overseas
students develop an understanding of their new environment
and establish educational practices that will help
them successfully continue their education in Australia.
Our goal is to prepare students for the students
for the world of the 21st century in an
educational environment that is warm, nurturing, stimulating
and enjoyable. We aim to provide quality teaching
programs, resource materials, teaching and wider experiences
that are relevant and specific to the needs of our
ESL students and in accordance with the NSW Board
of Studies syllabuses. We believe that learning English
is the key to unlocking the potential of our students
and our goal is to assist them to become independent
learners of English and to develop themselves intellectually,
vocationally and morally so that they have the opportunity
to successfully complete their senior school studies
and access tertiary studies in Australia.
 Philosophy
We believe our international students need to develop
an understanding and appreciation of the different
values and attitudes in Australian society and educational
philosophies compared to those in their Asian home
countries. Therefore, we feel it is important to encourage
the students to understand and adopt the Australian
style of independent learning, thus easing their path
to the very different learning and teaching styles
that they will experience in Australian High Schools
and tertiary institutions. In this way, we endeavour
to empower our students to achieve success in their
personal and educational aspirations.
Excellent facilities
and highly professional teaching staff ensure that
students develop quality academic approaches to learning,
relevant computer skills, determined self direction,
keen personal ambition, an optimistic spirit and a
desire to make a significant contribution to society.
We are currently taking registration for year 11
and 12 students. You can find more detailed information
about the Cornell High School in the latest copy of
the School
handbook.
