Planning is underway for the establishment of a new high school in Bungendore to accommodate more than 450 students and to upgrade facilities at Bungendore Public School.

The Department of Education has lodged its Response to Submissions report as part of the State Significant Development (SSD) application for the new high school. This includes an Amendment Report, which outlines key changes to the design that have been made to address important feedback from community and stakeholders. 

The Response to Submission report is on public exhibition on the NSW Planning Portal: https://www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au/major-projects/projects/new-high-school-bungendore

The school will be operational for the start of 2023 in purpose built temporary facilities. The preferred location is at Bungendore Public School and further information about these arrangements will be provided to the community as details are available.

  • 24 flexible learning spaces including 3 support learning spaces
