Boys Only Homegroups

Rationale

We are offering a Boys Only Homegroup program that provides a finely tuned blend of single and mixed gender learning to ensure our young male students are equipped for the real world. We will provide our students with all the advantages of gender specific teaching combined with the social advantages of a co-educational setting. Our teachers will apply teaching and learning strategies specially designed for an all-boys classroom and engage students in a curriculum tailored by gender.

The Boys Only Homegroup will explore and address gender related issues, delve deeper into concepts of masculinity and attitudes towards females; whilst seeking to challenge common stereotypes and prejudices. Research insists that boys learn best with problem solving and activity-based learning and at the core, what matters most, is the quality of the teaching and the sensitivity of that teaching to optimise student motivation. All male students are eligible to preference to be placed in the Boys Only Homegroup and there are no entry requirements for the program, other than the enrolment criteria outlined by DET.

Enrolment into the Boys Only Homegroup

All male students are eligible to apply to be  in a Boys Only Homegroup and there are no entry requirements for the program other than the enrolment criteria outlined by the Department, which is applied for all enrolment positions offered by the school.

Enrolment application forms are available directly from the Principal or Transition Coordinator of your child’s primary school. If you are in a Government School, you should receive these forms around April. Students from Independent or Non-Government Schools need to contact Williamstown High School directly for an enrolment package.

You need to specify on the enrolment form whether your child would like to preference be in the Boys Only Homegroup.
