Our school leaders, teachers and support staff know what it takes to develop a love of learning.

They meet each student where they are on their learning journey, and challenge and support them to become the best learner they can be.

Our teachers are lifelong learners themselves

The majority of Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese teachers have more than five years of teaching experience and hold two or more professional qualifications. We invest in continuous staff training, through our own in-house professional learning programs, to coaching, to hosting guest speakers and sharing best practice with other school systems and industry partners.

We encourage personal development, with a significant number of our teachers holding a Masters Degree and many more in the process of obtaining additional qualifications. Our support staff are also very experienced with outstanding skills and in many cases, specialised training.
