Crestwood High School

What Crestwood High School does

Crestwood High School is a public secondary school operated by the NSW Department of Education, located at 17 Chapel Lane, Baulkham Hills, NSW, Australia. It serves students from Year 7 to Year 12, delivering the standard NSW curriculum across key learning areas including English, Mathematics, Science, HSIE, Languages, PDHPE, Creative Arts, and TAS. The school operates a dedicated Support Unit of 5 classes for students with physical, intellectual, and emotional disabilities, led by a dedicated Head Teacher Support Unit, and applies the Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) framework as its wellbeing model. Additional student programs include the Inspire High Potential and Gifted Education stream, Creative and Performing Arts, multiple band ensembles, Debating and Public Speaking, school sport, and vocational pathways via TAFE NSW and Western Sydney Local Health Districts EVET courses (including School-based Apprenticeships and Traineeships). Selectivity programs such as the Pines Café barista training (Year 10) and Duke of Edinburgh's Award provide enrichment, and a Student Support Officer and school counselling services address wellbeing needs.

The school's core technology layer is a set of integrated third-party SaaS platforms: Microsoft Office 365 and OneDrive (provided via DET Enterprise License for Year 7 students), Sentral for attendance, parent-teacher interviews, and academic reports, School Bytes for payments and parental consent, Munch Monitor for online canteen ordering, Canva for newsletter design, and Square POS for uniform shop online ordering. Parents interact with the school through dedicated mobile apps (iOS and Android). The school mandates a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program for all Years 7-12 students via a dedicated HP Shopping portal, with minimum specifications of Windows 11 or MacOS, 13" display, 8GB memory, 256GB storage, and dual-band WiFi; Chromebooks and iPads are explicitly discouraged.

As a NSW public school, Crestwood High School is not a commercial enterprise; it is funded through state government education allocations and does not publicly disclose revenue. All financial contributions are voluntary, with school fees kept low, and the P&C association operates the canteen (ASCA 5-star accredited) and uniform shop as separate community services. Enrollment is administered through the NSW Department of Education portal under a local intake area policy, with the school also accepting international students and temporary residents under broader DET policy.
