Fahan School was the only Tasmanian School to feature in the list of the Top One Hundred Primary and the Top One Hundred Secondary Schools in the Nation in a report released in The Australian today. The paper also ranked Fahan School as number one in the State.
Also in recent years, Fahan has had the highest percentage of Year 12 students achieving university entrance, in the State.
Principal, Mr Tony Freeman, believes that it is the quality of the teaching, the support of parents and the commitment of the girls to their learning that has created this fine record.
“Also, our size affords all of our students the opportunity to receive individual attention from the teaching staff,” said Mr Freeman. “ We are very proud of the girls’ achievements across a wide range of activities. These results underline just one aspect of excellence across the varied program offered to the girls,” he said.
“We are also very fortunate to have such a wonderful team of dedicated teaching professionals who strive to ensure each of our students reaches her full potential”.
