Governor's School STEM Award 2021

Joseph Banks Secondary College received the 2021 Leadership Excellence Award in the Secondary School category for the Governor’s School STEM Award. Science Minister Roger Cook acknowledged award recipients and their outstanding student participation in STEM education for this year. “The winners of this year’s Governor’s School STEM Awards have gone above and beyond to develop engaging and supportive STEM learning environments.”

At Joseph Banks Secondary College we are constantly looking for new ways to innovate 21st Century education. Our College offers students opportunities to engage with real world experience. Our students leave with a personalised secondary education experience.

I am incredibly proud of our students and staff. Throughout 2020 everyone continued to do their best to make significant improvements to the achievement data that we had set out in our Targets 2020 document that was in place well before COVID-19 and the community restrictions that followed.

I commend the students of Joseph Banks Secondary College in 2020. All students faced uncertainty and anxiety as the world changed dramatically in early 2020. Student behaviour and the ability for students to support each other, and to excel whether academically or otherwise, is the foundation of the College community that we look to foster.
