Nurturing Excellence – a Vision for High Potential Learners

We are excited to share a transformative step forward in our commitment to fostering excellence across a range of domains within our College community. In alignment with our Mission Statement; to establish and promote an ethos of teaching and learning excellence where all strive to develop the individual’s spiritual, academic, social, cultural, and physical potential, we are thrilled to introduce a new initiative focusing on High Potential Learners.

This endeavour concentrates on recognising and nurturing the diverse strengths and talents of students, including those demonstrating consistently high academic achievement. To begin with, we are focusing on students that have demonstrated

high potential and performance academically in Years 3 – 10, as evidenced from their level of achievement in Semester 1, 2025 and their most recent NAPLAN results. We have identified these students, and their parents will be contacted via email shortly regarding their inclusion in the initial group.

In this phase of recognising, gathering, and valuing our initial group of High Potential Learners, we will:

• provide opportunities for them to excel through College funded ICAS assessments in August.
• Utilise this data to support teachers in catering for the specific individual needs of our High Potential Learners in their everyday classroom.

Below is a breakdown of the test window dates for each of the tests the College aims to utilise this year.

Our focus on High Potential Learners will develop across additional domains in due course. Please keep an eye out for more information and updates in this space.
