Learning to Thrive is Woodleigh’s 2030 Strategic Direction, developed through consultation with the school community, informed by research and cutting-edge practice.
This vision builds on our long history of innovation in holistic education. It clarifies our values, what we are committed to and how we will shape the future of our school.
We are committed to ensuring young people thrive during their days at Woodleigh and beyond, when they step into the world beyond school. Stage Two of Learning to Thrive commences in 2025 and focuses heavily on effectiveness, improvement, and innovation.
Our school achieved a significant milestone in 2022 when Woodleigh became an authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) World School for the Primary Years Programme (PYP). In 2024, Woodleigh achieved accreditation with the Middle Years Programme (MYP). These two accomplishments solidify a seamless structure for learning across the entire Woodleigh student lifecycle. With the Year 10 Regenerative Futures Program and VCE, Woodleigh offers a single aligned curriculum from Early Childhood to Year 12.
It promotes intellectual rigour and student agency, motivating students to make meaningful connections between their academic studies and the real world through a regenerative lens.
Woodleigh continues to question the status quo; it challenges conventional thinking, makes courageous choices about how best to engage young minds and pioneers the concept of holistic education.
At Woodleigh, we cultivate the learning of young people who can apply their accumulated knowledge to solve real-world challenges and make a difference in the lives of others.
You can find us all over the world; an adventurous mind is easy to spot! Meet some of the Woodleigh people leading our community right now.
