Devonport High School is proud of its heritage. Built in 1916, the original building remains. The school is located in the heart of its namesake and has a reputation for its local and international students’ outstanding achievements.
The culture is one of high expectations and a commitment to continuous growth with an expectation that every student will learn and achieve positive outcomes. Our students, staff and school community are guided by the values of connection, courage, growth, respect and responsibility. We aspire to a culture where our whole school community reflects a strong sense of belonging and pride in the school.
The wellbeing and learning needs of our students and families is a priority and we are strongly committed to creating an environment that supports students to thrive, be resilient and engaged in their work or learning. We value parents as partners in their children’s learning.
The school’s population supports an intimate learning environment where every student is well known by staff and allows individual talents and aspirations to be nurtured through a wide range of academic programs and challenges, extra-curricular activities and alternate learning environments.
