At Townley, we view education as a creative process. Our vision is of leading a learning community fostering academic, emotional, and physical confidence. Creating inspirational learners who dare to take risks and the wisdom to learn from their mistakes.
An education at Townley Grammar School is a privilege but also a great responsibility. Ultimately we are judged not just by our qualifications but by our qualities so together with first-class academic qualifications students at Townley become responsible citizens with a social conscience, able to lead others and act as change agents for a better society.
Everyone should have the opportunity to be extraordinary and through our bold and inspiring curriculum, we enable our students to let their dreams power their futures. By fuelling the imagination of our students we light a fire that will burn bright throughout their lives.
The School's aims are:

We are a selective school with specialisms in Performing and Visual Arts as well as Maths and Computing. This is an exciting and rewarding combination. It enables us to use the power of creativity and performance to support our students in their emotional development and creative potential and to support those who mentor and teach students in the use of inspiring and highly effective techniques.
These specialisms drive improved outcomes for our students by providing them with access to the latest learning technology and practice, a rich program of activities, and a culture of creativity.
