Strategic Direction 2025+

Mulgrave has the luxury of being a maturing school. With just over 30 years of history, we have moved through rapid growth and are now an established school with great strengths built on outstanding facilities and robust, competitive applicant pools. At this stage, schools typically focus on complexity, nuance, refinement, and operationalising the mission and vision. It’s the right time to ask…how do we achieve ‘excellence’ through teaching and learning? And, we should also think of purpose in the greater sense…what is the impetus of education at its core?

We have the benefit of being confident in our identity and mandate, so we can focus on how we can create greater, far-reaching impact. This is why Mulgrave’s new strategic direction work pays attention to both the ‘mechanisms of excellence’ (fundamental components of teaching, learning, coaching, and learning experiences that deliver our stated aims) and how these experiences build student character, values, and skills to maximise the positive and purposeful difference they can make in the world. It is grounded in a proven emphasis of developing learner confidence with purpose.
