Benefits of Co-education
Choosing the right school for your child can be challenging and the decision between co-education or single-sex education is an important factor for many families.
Some of the benefits of co-education:
Student-Centred Learning
Carey is known for being innovative, progressive and leading the way in best practice teaching and learning, supporting strong academic results and personal development for each student.
Life at Carey
Carey students are curious, aspirational and engaged global citizens. We build on their individual qualities to develop young people who flourish and can lead with courage, compassion and intelligence.
Our Values
Everything we do at Carey is underpinned by our values.
Care
We are empathetic, compassionate and understanding. We build strong connections by prioritising the wellbeing of ourselves and all in our community.
We listen to the needs of others without judgement and have an awareness of our own actions and responsibilities.
Respect
In line with our Baptist values, we are considerate, we value fairness and we each actively maintain a supportive and inclusive culture. Our community is strengthened by welcoming and celebrating difference and diversity, and we embrace the range of experiences and perspectives this brings.
We display respect for ourselves, each other and the environments in which we live, work and play.
Growth
We create an environment that supports personal, academic and professional growth, and we view challenges and adversity as opportunities to learn, innovate and improve.
We recognise that everyone in our community will have a different pathway and we encourage all to be the best they can be, acknowledging that we all grow at different rates and in different ways.
