Ravenswood School for Girls is the only school on Sydney’s Upper North Shore to offer students a choice between the HSC and the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IBDP). From Kindergarten to Year 6, the IBPYP provides a rigorous framework that values and promotes inquiry, collaboration, and student agency. Our pre-kindergarten, Ravenswood Prep, offers an innovative curriculum combining the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IBPYP), Reggio Emilia and Ravenswood’s Positive Education approach.
As a non-selective school, we accept girls of all talents, abilities, faiths and cultures. The uniqueness of our School comes from our personalised approach and our concern with developing the whole person through academic, social, emotional and spiritual growth.
Ravenswood is proud to have been named a 5-Star Innovative School by The Educator magazine seven times in eight years (2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025), as well as being named one of The Educator’s inaugural 5-Star Best Schools in 2025. These accolades recognise our groundbreaking innovations in the areas of Positive Education and STEM. Ravenswood garnered an Excellence Award in The Educator’s Australian Education Awards for Best Student Wellbeing Program in 2021, 2022, 2024 and 2025. Ravenswood also won Excellence Awards at the 2022, 2024 and 2025 Australian Education Awards for Boarding School of the Year, and an Excellence Award for Best Professional Learning Program in 2025.
