Conservatorium High School

The Conservatorium High School is the secondary arm of the Conservatorium of Music in Sydney, NSW and the State’s only specialist music high school. Established at the behest of Henri Verbrugghen, foundation director of the NSW State Conservatorium of Music, the school enrolled its first students in 1918. As the State's only specialist music high school, identifying students with the most potential to flourish musically and academically enables us to provide opportunities for talent development in the specific domain of music. As such, the school is committed to providing high-quality educational outcomes for all high potential and gifted learners. Conservatorium High School staff are all trained to work with gifted students, and our programs are enriched, compacted, accelerated, and differentiated to provide opportunity for students to learn in individualised ways.
