The BMGS Difference

Ad Altiora Ship :: Blue Mountains Grammar School, Sydney

Blue Mountains Grammar School is the premier Independent school in the Blue Mountains. The school hasn’t just survived the past 100 years of education, it has thrived. In that century our values and ethos have been established, refined and updated to evolve with the ever changing world we live in. This has brought the School to where it is today; at the forefront of educational thinking and practice.

Currently, BMGS lives by the Ad Altiora framework for learning and life.

Our Framework

Ad Altiora Ship :: Blue Mountains Grammar School, Sydney

Our Ad Altiora Framework for Learning and Life describes the kind of young people we seek to grow. The central metaphor of a ship describes the character traits that will enable them to flourish in life. The bubbles around the edge describe the capabilities that they will need to excel both at school and in their life after school. We are very intentional in designing classroom learning, other school experiences and co-curricular programs to nurture growth and development of these character traits and capabilities so that our students graduate both work ready and life ready.
