Position Information
Asquith Boys High School is a comprehensive high school in the northern suburbs of Sydney. The school caters for the educational and welfare needs of boys, however in 2026 it will become a coeducation setting who attracts students from the local drawing area. The school's mission is to provide 'exceptional learning opportunities' and specialises in the areas of technology, creative arts, sport, and citizenship. In recent years Asquith Boys High School has consolidated its reputation as a leader in boys' education with many of the school's successful programs being emulated at other schools. The school offers Music, Creative Arts, and Academic scholarships along with programs such as the Year 7&8 Enrichment Classes from Year 7-10, STEM courses, Duke of Edinburgh, an excellent International student program, and has a flourishing Student Leadership body to provide an exciting range of learning opportunities for all students. The local community has recognised the school's success and this is reflected in increasing enrolments. Asquith Boys High has an enrolment of 600, which is anticipated to grow as we transition to Hornsby High School in 2026.
