Ambarvale High School is located in Rosemeadow on the southern tip of the Campbelltown area and is part of the Camden network of schools. We currently have 860 students, which includes 51 students in our Support Unit. 29% of students identify as coming from a non-English speaking background and 15% identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander.
We have approximately 71 teaching staff, including an Executive Leadership Team made up of 14 leaders (11 Head Teachers, 3 Deputy Principals, 1 Principal). We also have approximately 25 non-teaching staff and a number of para-professionals contracted to support our school, including technology support personnel, Student Support Officer, Speech Therapist and Pacific Island Youth Worker.
Our school serves the Rosemeadow, St Helens Park and Appin communities. For many of our families, our school meets their aspirations to have their child be the first in their family to complete Year 12 and engage with tertiary education. Other students are supported vocationally to access work-related curriculum and opportunities to ensure a successful transition pathway from school to their career.
We have a significant focus on improved student learning outcomes for all students, a corresponding focus on enhanced precision in our teaching practice and a continued commitment to the development of the whole child though increased engagement, attendance and immersion in innovative and experiential ways of learning.
