About Urangan State High School:
Our award-winning school has a population of approximately 1500 students from Year 7 to Year 12. With a focus on implementing the curriculum with fidelity, we have a late start for students every Monday and Friday so that our teachers can collaboratively plan curriculum with alignment and precision. This provides an additional 110 minutes of focused planning time each week to our teachers, improving work/life balance. You can find out more about this program, and our school more broadly, on our school YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/uranganshs.
Our school is a friendly, happy, and busy place where our focus is on developing individual and collective excellence; for an inclusive, dynamic, and cohesive community. We aim to develop a safe, supportive, and inclusive culture that fosters a sense of belonging and purpose for all; enabling us to celebrate our successes as members of a dynamic, cohesive community. In doing this, we help to discover the best within all students, through high quality educational and social experiences that expose them to new ideas, new ways, and new possibilities - ultimately supporting every student to have opportunities for "what comes next".
