40 years of School Spectacular!

Schools Spectacular celebrates its 40th year in November this year with the theme ‘Fabulous’.

Proudly presented by the NSW Department of Education, 5000 students from across NSW public schools will showcase their creative talents across 4 incredible live performances at Qudos Bank Arena on 24 and 25 November.

NSW Department of Education’s Secretary, Murat Dizdar, said that Schools Spectacular reflected the extraordinary performing arts talent nurtured in NSW public schools.

“This annual event celebrates the creativity, passion, and dedication of students and staff, who have been tirelessly rehearsing for months to perform at the highest level in a show that will leave audiences speechless,” Mr Dizdar said.

“Beyond just entertainment, Schools Spectacular showcases the role performing arts education plays in nurturing young talent, student wellbeing and engaging our students with school.”

We invite the entire NSW school community to participate in commemorating and celebrating four decades of the NSW Education Department’s flagship performing arts event.

Celebrating 175 years of public education this Education Week

Education Week is an annual celebration of NSW public education that recognises the achievements of our schools, teachers, and students.

This Education Week marks 175 years of public education in NSW. That’s 175 years of our teachers and support staff playing a vital role in shaping the minds of future generations, ensuring they’re well-prepared for success in all aspects of life. 

From Monday 31 July to 4 August, we’re taking a moment to reflect and learn from our past, celebrate our achievements, and look forward to a bright future with confidence. Our schools have done an incredible job shaping the minds of future generations. We’re looking to the future to make sure our education system can prepare young people to learn throughout their lives, from the first days of early childhood education to post-school pathways.  

#EdWeek23 commenced with a live stream event broadcasted from Cambridge Park Public School to public schools across the state. The event featured messages from Deputy Premier and Minister for Education and Early Learning, the Hon. Prue Car, and the Secretary for NSW Department of Education, Murat Dizdar.  

You can now watch the recording if you missed out on the live stream.

HSC Trial Dates

Students and parents / guardians of Year 12,

Since the original distribution of the Year 12 Trial examination timetable, there have been two minor changes to the schedule. Changes are as follows:

1. The Society and Culture exam, running on Tuesday 15th August, will now start at 1:30pm. This exam will now conclude at 4:30 pm. Originally this was posted with a start time of 1pm. This is to support the equity of students participating in both the Mathematics and Society & Culture exams on the 15th, allowing for the break time between the morning and afternoon exam sessions to be matched across all examination days.

2. The Design and Technology exam on Monday 21st August was originally posted as a duration of 3 hours. This is incorrect. The Design and Technology exam (21st/08/2023) has a run time of 1.5 hours. All other details of the exam will remain the same.
