Teaching and Learning
Students are taught to think critically, apply knowledge to new situations and develop skills needed to become lifelong learners able to adapt and thrive in our ever-changing world.
Our teaching and learning focus provides staff with the ability to guide student learning through meaningful feedback which enables them to achieve learning growth.
Our dedicated staff bring a diverse range of experience and expertise to foster the individual growth of each student. We know that relationships are imperative to a student’s experience with learning and school.
We offer a wide-ranging curriculum and extra-curricular program to ensure all students can find their best at the College.
Our St Leo’s Growth Domains
At St Leo’s, we are passionate about the holistic development of your child. We focus on developing the whole person by ensuring a balanced, diverse experience and development of our students across a range of areas we call our St Leo’s Growth Domains, covering the following aspects of every student –
- Spiritual
- Academic
- Cultural
- Environmental
- Social/Emotional, and
- Physical
All learning opportunities at St Leo’s flow through and are formed within these Growth Domains. You will find the six Growth Domains reflected in all aspects of College life and highlighted all around our campus.
Our Growth Domains ensure that when our students leave the College, we have holistically prepared them to be the very change they wish to be in the world.
