The School is incredibly proud of the way our Class of 2025 embraced every opportunity they were presented with both in and outside of the classroom. They have applied themselves to their studies in a dedicated and enthusiastic manner and balanced this with involvement in a wide array of co-curricular pursuits.

In all, 15% of students achieved an ATAR over 90 and 35% of the cohort achieved an ATAR over 80. The fact that St Paul’s does not stream students out of Year 12, or offer a VM stream, means that these results are truly indicative of the quality environment of learning and teaching that St Paul’s offers.

This year’s cohort have a variety of plans for the immediate future, from tertiary study in areas such as health, commerce and law, as well as employment opportunities such as apprenticeships and Australian Defence Force traineeships. We are pleased to note the increasing number of students who have already secured conditional places in tertiary institutions prior to the completion of Year 12. We are equally proud of the number of students who secured employment as soon as their studies concluded. We look forward to continuing to work with the Class of 2025 and helping them find a post-school pathway which allows them to pursue their potential.

We are incredibly proud of the Class of 2025 and wish them the very best for the future.
