PLC Armidale ... where girls flourish

PLC Armidale celebrates 134 years in 2021. The College combines years of tradition with innovative teaching to offer a dynamic all girls’ education that is tailored to the specific needs of girls for both day and boarding students from Pre-Kinder to Year 12 (boarding from Year 5). The tranquil environment at PLC Armidale is welcoming, and conducive to the inspirational of culture of learning that exists at the College.  PLC Armidale is not a large school, but it has a highly respected, enviable reputation for academic excellence, providing a broad curriculum, extensive nurturing pastoral care program, and in addition to its academic excellence is renown for its musical prowess, sporting success, leadership and community service involvement.

PLC Armidale frequently features in the top 200 schools for HSC achievements. Approximately 95% of PLC Armidale graduates progress to study university courses and around one third of those elect to pursue Science related subjects.

PLC Armidale students also excel beyond the classroom in many extra curricular activities including cattle team and equestrian pursuits as well as sport and the arts. The fastest growing activity at PLC Armidale currently is the hugely popular and internationally recognised, Duke of Edinburgh program.

An intense focus on literacy forms the foundation for academic success, underpinned by supportive and respectful relationships between teachers and students. Girls' flourish in the nurturing environment. Our College's motto is “to the stars” and we work in partnership with every student and their family to achieve her personal best at PLC Armidale.

In 2017, the College commenced a program called PLC Pathways, which is a 12 month intensive English (ELICOS) and cultural familiarisation residential program for secondary school aged girls. PLC Pathways operates alongside the regular College program, and is a unique and welcome addition to an already culturally diverse, inclusive and globally connected PLC Armidale. PLC Pathways also includes opportunities for boys ... but on the Scots All Saints' College campus in Bathurst!

You are always welcome at PLC Armidale! Come and discuss your daughter's specific needs and aspirations with our friendly team and find out more about how she will benefit from an education at PLC Armidale.
