Specialty & excellence programs
This school runs specialist programs many parents never hear about:

The rows marked derived come from a flag in the NSW Department of Education feed, © NSW Department of Education: the program name is ours, the row shows no entry marker because nothing we hold says how entry works there, and the link goes to the department’s general specialisation page, which does not name this school.

School score 77/100 blends this school's own published attendance with the advantage and Year-12 attainment of its area. It is our estimate from open data — not an official rating, not ICSEA, and not a measure of teaching quality.
Area advantage (CAI) — our Community Advantage Index — is our own estimate of the surrounding community's socio-educational advantage, derived from ABS SEIFA. It is a percentile, not a score out of 100: a CAI of 71 means this suburb sits in the top 29% of Australian suburbs we hold a figure for (14,490 of them). It describes the suburb, so every school in Glenfield shares it. It is a community indicator, not a school-quality score, and is not ICSEA. How the Community Advantage Index is calculated ▸
