As part of the NSW Government's plan to rebuild public education, the 2024-25 Budget is delivering record education funding, including $8.9 billion for new and upgraded schools. This targeted investment will ensure growing communities get access to a world class public education.
From 2026, Asquith Boys High School and Asquith Girls High School will transition to become 2 standalone co-educational Years 7–12 high schools accepting Years 7, 9 and 11 from 2026 and all cohorts from 2027.
This follows comprehensive community consultation undertaken by the NSW Department of Education in the Hornsby-Berowra surrounding area school communities.
A project to upgrade the schools to ensure they are fit-for-purpose is now in planning. The project will deliver upgraded facilities including adjustments to the schools’ IT and administration systems, new signage and specialist classrooms, as well as toilet and changeroom facilities.
We will share more information with the local community as the project progresses.
