Curriculum Handbooks
We deliver the Australian Curriculum, grounded in Pedare’s Guiding Principles. This framework allows us to deliver a truly tailored educational journey for every student’s goals.
Teaching & Learning at Pedare
 From Reception to Year 12, we uphold rigorous academic standards while nurturing skills, creativity and adaptability. Our vision is fostering partnerships with families that enable students to:
- Excel in learning
- Be globally focused
- Have a strong sense of self-worth
- Make a difference in the community
At Pedare, we believe that all students possess unique gifts and hold the inherent capacity to make a meaningful, positive impact. Working in partnership with families, we actively cultivate a deep love of learning, foster personal integrity, and instill a strong sense of purpose that is grounded in our Christian faith.
Our five Guiding Principles for Learning provide the foundation for how this educational vision is brought to life; they shape the College culture, inform learning practices, and guide the relationships that are crucial in helping every student flourish. Intrinsic to these core principles is the belief that all students can:
- Thrive:Â when they are actively involved in school life and enjoying the process of learning.
- Connect:Â when they experience and foster relationships built on trust, respect and inclusion.
- Be enriched:Â when they use a range of information to solve complex problems, engage thoughtfully and collaborate.
- Be empowered:Â when they apply creative thinking to successfully navigate and adapt to new situations.
- Belong:Â when they respect and value diversity, and seek ways to serve others.
Students are taught the Australian Curriculum and the South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) through the lens of these Guiding Principles. We work closely with families to tailor bespoke learning pathways. Pedare offers an extensive range of extra-curricular opportunities, including specialised programs such as the internationally recognised VEX robotics program, as well as dedicated initiatives focused on environmental sustainability.
