The Illawarra Grammar School (TIGS)

We believe a good education is not solely about an examination score. School should be about far more than a number. It is about growing each day, building on the learnings of the day before. Students stretching their minds, training their bodies, caring for others, and growing in faith; growing stronger each day. The Illawarra and the world need new types of leaders, at work, within the community, and at home. This new generation of leaders calls for an enhanced set of skills and intelligences that a curriculum-only approach cannot provide. We need leaders who can stand against the headwinds of life. We need leaders of character and curiosity, compassion and connection, critical thinking and courage. To take students from strength to strength, a school needs to be consistent, creative, and customised.
