Excellence in Australian schools 

Australian schools benchmark all subjects, teaching practices and resources, including technology, against international best practice. This practice ensures students are prepared for future study, not only in Australia, but anywhere in the world.

Australian schools are already world leaders in the application of information and communications technology to education. Our classrooms are world-class in terms of improving quality, awareness and access to IT resources and training for students and their teachers.

A wide range of initiatives and programs in Australian schools are improving the learning environment and enabling students to achieve their full potential. For example, the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) shows Australian schools outperforming those of other English speaking countries in the key areas of science and mathematics.
