Cavendish Road State High School is one of Brisbane’s oldest public high schools and we are recognised for high-quality education.
We offer you a wide range of subjects, including university-level academic programs and sporting excellence programs that are only available at a small number of schools.
While here, you can study advanced courses at university that will allow you to directly enter university after school.
Our school is close to major shopping centres and public transport to Brisbane’s central business district.
You can attend extra classes after school if you need help, or if you wish to improve your understanding.
Our vision is to achieve and celebrate individual excellence and success for every student.
