Welcome to Campbell High School

Campbell High School enjoys an enviable position, situated at the base of Mount Ainslie, next to the Australian War Memorial and only minutes to the CBD. It is a welcoming space which combines traditional architecture with contemporary elements of education.

Our years 7-10 school was founded in 1965 and has an enrolment of approximately 690 students. The school supports students as they transition to adulthood. Teaching practice is informed by contemporary research on student learning and the developmental stages of the teenage brain. The school develops future leaders and global citizens through a variety of co-curricular and extra-curricular programs.

At Campbell High School we foster a strong sense of pride and belonging in our school community. We balance contemporary learning with core school values to build character, resilience and success. We set high expectations and encourage students to relish a difficult task or bounce back after disappointment.

Positive Behaviour for Learning

Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) brings together the whole-school community to contribute to developing a positive, safe and supportive learning culture. The framework assists schools to improve social, emotional, behavioural and academic outcomes for children and young people.

When PBL is implemented well, teachers and students have more time to focus on relationships and classroom instruction. Students and staff benefit from:

reduced problem behaviour
increased time focused on instruction
improved social-emotional wellbeing
positive and respectful relationships among students and staff
support for teachers to teach, model and respond effectively to student need
a predictable learning environment where staff and students know what is expected to deliver effective practices that can be sustained over time
