International Students

St. Andrew’s Grammar welcomes international students to join our inclusive, multicultural community. We believe that the experience of sharing and developing life skills with students from across the globe assists our students in developing a more dynamic and valid world view and promotes qualities of tolerance and an understanding of the needs of others.

Please note, St. Andrew’s Grammar does not offer any boarding or accommodation facilities. Students under the age of 18 must be under the care of a parent or suitable relative (as defined by the Department of Home Affairs), or have other accommodation approved by the School.

Entry Requirements

International students must meet the School’s academic and English requirements before enrolling.

As per the School Application for Enrolment Form, students from English speaking countries are required to submit two recent school reports.

Students from non-English speaking countries should submit a copy of a current AEAS (Australian Education Assessment Services) assessment so that the School is able to determine the student’s English language ability and the appropriate academic entry point. For further details about AEAS testing, visit the AEAS website here.

English Requirements

Students who already learn in an English language setting may not be required to submit additional proof of English levels.

Students commencing in Years 10 to 12 should have already reached an Upper Intermediate ESL level. Students commencing in Years 7-9 should have reached a high Intermediate level prior to commencing at St. Andrew’s Grammar.

Students who have not reached the minimum English level will be required to take additional ELICOS training in a High School Preparation Program until their English levels have improved sufficiently prior to commencing their course of study at St. Andrew’s Grammar.

St Andrew’s Grammar offers English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EALD) for students in Years 10 – 12. Students in Year 9 and 10 are offered extra language classes to assist them with their language development. All prospective international students are expected to have acquired an English level appropriate to learning in an English language medium, with some assistance.
