The Scots College – An independent, Presbyterian day and boarding school for boys in Years T-12

Raising fine men since 1893

The Scots College is a distinctive Australian school that defends the honourable traditions, adventures and learning of boys. We exist to inspire boys to learn, lead and serve as they strive for excellence together. Scots has been raising fine young men since 1893 from Sydney, New South Wales and many different nations from around the world.

We are committed to developing a culture of high expectations that nourishes the development of creative, confident, accomplished young men. As one of the top private boys' schools in Sydney, we acknowledge the importance of student engagement, of challenge and active learning opportunities. Learning experiences are increasingly personalised - shaped in response to our boys' stages of development rather than their age or year level.

Our boys are encouraged to develop a 'growth mindset' understanding the diverse and dynamic nature of intelligence. They all need security, support, confidence in themselves and belief in the power of their own commitment to their learning. Information communication and video conferencing technologies are used to enhance collaboration and the authenticity of learning experiences, provide flexibility, extending learning opportunities and supporting targeted learning interventions.

Strong and positive values are important to our College. We aim to build a culture of respect in our community towards God, others, self and our environment by aligning our policies and practices with Christian principles.

Boarding at Scots

"Boarding has been a life-changing experience for me. I have made many new friends, learnt to be independent and organised and become part of a unique community."

James Kilby, Year 12 Scots Boarder at Fairfax House

Scots boarders have been a vital part of the Scots community for over a century.

The Scots College provides boarding in Sydney from Year 5 onwards, and offers a high quality education in a safe and nurturing environment, where your son is supported to reach his full potential. As a boarder, your son will stay at one of our five Boarding Houses where he will be provided with strong pastoral care and individual attention, while experiencing the joys of being a part of his House 'family'.

The benefits of boarding school include:

  • Boarders live in one of five Boarding Houses and enjoy individual living and study space within dormitories. Year 12 boarders receive single room accommodation.
    A fresh and nutritious menu is developed by the College caterers, Trippas White Group.
  • The opportunity to achieve excellence in academic, sporting and co-curricular areas.
  • Close supervision of academic work by qualified staff Tutors.
  • The chance to develop independence and self-confidence.
  • Learning to live in a close community with one's peers.
  • The making of life-long friends from around the globe.
  • Parents are in touch with their sons' progress every day through Pipeline, the College's innovative, real time information service.

For information please contact our Admissions team at  or download our Boarders' Handbook.
