Middle School at Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College welcomes students from Years 5–8 into a supportive and engaging community, offering an integrated and specific approach to wellbeing, teaching and learning that responds to their unique developmental needs and helps them flourish.
At Bishop Tyrrell Middle School, students in Years 5 to 8 engage with a comprehensive curriculum based on the New South Wales Education Standards Authority (NESA) requirements:
Lessons are designed to challenge and inspire, while supporting each student’s individual growth.
Middle School students are offered a range of leadership opportunities and mentoring programs, including the Year 5 Buddy Program with Kindergarten students and formal leadership roles in Year 8.
Co-curricular activities, performing arts, sports (both individual and representative teams), debating, Tournament of Minds, and the da Vinci Decathlon allow students to explore interests, build confidence, and strengthen teamwork skills.
Students benefit from specialist lessons, including STEM and Music, and engage in the Biriban program which offers highly engaging learning opportunities driven by student choice. These experiences encourage critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and independent problem-solving.
Through these experiences, Middle School students develop resilience, curiosity and a love of learning, while strong pastoral support and coordinated transitions with Junior and Senior School ensure they are well-prepared academically, socially and emotionally for the years ahead.
