MLC School

Canberra Private Schools introduces MLC School in Burwood, for all your education and learning needs.

MLC School is an independent, non-selective Uniting Church school for girls from Pre Kindergarten to Year 12 in the Inner West of Sydney. Our rigorous approach challenges students to be fearless thinkers with the courage to grasp innovation, take measured risks and make a difference in their lives and the lives of others.

130 years ago our founders had the revolutionary goal of preparing girls for university and MLC School remains at the forefront today. Our academic, co-curricular and pastoral care programs are responsive to the changing needs of these complex times and encourage girls to take measured risks, embrace innovation and adapt to change.

Students gain the skills to navigate their strengths and weaknesses, the courage and optimism to make a difference and the motivation to become lifelong learners. Students are also challenged to think and act like leaders and opportunities to lead abound. On average, 90% of the Year 12 cohort elects to take on the office of prefect. It is a testament to a schooling that has pushed them to take responsibility and be agents of change in their own lives and the lives of others.

At MLC School we embrace every girl's individual characteristics and are proud of the culturally diverse population they form. Our graduates are prepared for a life of learning: empowered with a fundamental optimism, multiple perspectives and a questioning mindset.
