Location Profile:

University High School is a large innercity secondary school, catering to the local area including Parkville, Carlton and the Melbourne CBD. The school has a long and proud history of providing outstanding educational opportunities to its diverse local community. Our students, and our families, are the heart and soul of our school. In 2024 we have approximately 1900 students enrolled, approximately 150 of whom are in the specialist science program for Year 11 and 12 students, Elizabeth Blackburn Sciences. This is a selectentry program, but UHS itself is a neighbourhood, not a selectentry, school. In 2024, the school is in the third year of a new Strategic Plan and a new leadership structure, with a strong focus on student relationships and connection to school; and on emphasising student learning growth through responsive teaching._
The school¿s values have recently been redefined

They are:
_
- _ Curiosity: We are open to new ideas about the world and each other. We seek to learn, explore and understand._
- _ Kindness: We treat each other and our world with respect, humanity and empathy._
- _ Excellence: We uphold high standards, challenging ourselves to grow in all we do. We persevere and show resilience to be our best._
- _ Connection: We know that we are stronger together. We work to ensure that all belong equally in our community._

Students are expected to engage with all aspects of the formal curriculum and recognition is given to both outstanding achievement and to positive participation. The cocurricular program caters for a wide range of student interests and abilities and student participation at all levels is fostered. Student voice and leadership is embraced within the school and at all levels through a variety of forums._
Staff work in collaborative teams through domains, program areas and Professional Learning Communities (PLCs). A wide range of professional development opportunities, in both internal and external contexts, are available to all staff._
