Gold Coast Private Schools & Colleges
There are basically three types of schools in Queensland: Government run or public schools, faith-based schools and independent schools. The latter two fall into the Private Schools category.
The Gold Coast has many privately run schools, many of which have been established since the early 1900s. Private schools can either be co-educational or single-sex. Schools like St. Hilda's (girls school from Prep to Year 12) and TSS (boys school from Prep to Year 12) also offer boarding facilities. Many of these private schools are prestigious with a strong reputation for academic and sporting achievements.
Many of the following private schools are faith-based, with Catholic or Christian denominations making up the majority of the list. Though there are a handful of non-denominational independent or trade-based schools available as well.
The below list of Gold Coast private schools has been grouped into primary schools (Prep to Year 6), secondary schools (Years 7 to 12) and college (Prep to Year 12) lists.
