The Exmouth District High School Academic Extension and Enrichment Program places like-minded students in a challenging, rigorous environment, fostering a sense of connection in a supportive, fun, and collaborative setting.

Within the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) pathway, students will actively engage in Problem-Based Learning tasks and work towards mastering 21st-century skills. This pathway aims to extend their thinking across disciplines, enriching their understanding of the world through an interdisciplinary approach, preparing them to become future innovators.
 
To thrive in this program, it is crucial for both students and caregivers to understand the following:

  • The importance of being an independent and organised learner.
  • Learning and practicing skills in each subject area to ensure success in later years of education.
  • Maintaining high standards across all domains of school life to retain placement in the program.
  • Adjusting to a significant milestone of transitioning from working with peers of the same age to multi-aged peers, with some students potentially requiring time to settle in.
  • Encouraging parent involvement and acknowledging potential after-school commitments for students.

Applications for 2025 Coming Soon
