Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make as a parent. At Queensland Academy for Science, Mathematics and Technology (QASMT), we understand this responsibility, and that is why we are committed to and passionate about nurturing our students’ academic, social and personal development in a caring and safe community.
Underpinning our academic success is an outstanding pastoral care system supporting every student and helping each one to feel a vital part of the QASMT ‘family’. Student welfare is implemented through a Mentor Program ensuring all students achieve their potential. We believe in the importance of guiding students to become responsible and caring individuals, who are sensitive, open-minded and respectful of all cultures. QASMT aims to develop tomorrow’s leaders; individuals who will be internationally minded citizens.
We provide a valuable transition from senior school to university for highly capable students from Years 7 to 12 (International student intakes Years 10–12 only).
The Queensland Academy for Science Mathematics and Technology is an academically selective state school that offers exclusively the International Baccalaureate Programmes (IB). Students in Years 7–9 study the Middle Years Programme (MYP) whilst students in Years 10–12 study the Diploma Programme (DP).
With academic breadth and world focus, these programmes are recognised by leading international educational institutions, research bodies, and increasingly, the corporate world as the premier curriculum programmes for high achieving students.
The IB programmes take a holistic approach to education and aim to produce socially aware, ethical and globally focused students. International research has shown that IB Diploma graduates have a significantly higher success rate at university as a result of the grounding they receive in the programmes. Our students are active, curious and involved.
The Queensland Academy for Science Mathematics and Technology benefits from a unique partnership with The University of Queensland. Through this partnership, students are offered a number of exclusive opportunities commencing with our Engagement Program for our incoming cohort through to study courses, which lead to additional bonus tertiary selection rank points when successfully completed.
