The Junior Secondary years (Years 7, 8, and 9) are a crucial foundation for student success at Malanda State High School. During this time, students develop both academically and emotionally, building the skills and confidence needed for their senior years. Our carefully structured approach ensures that students are supported as they explore new subjects while continuing to enjoy their favourite ones.
Our success is driven by two key pillars:
- Engaging, Explicit Teaching – Our dedicated junior teachers use an explicit teaching model that prioritises engagement, fun, and active learning. Continuous checks for understanding ensure that no student’s progress is left to chance.
- Personalised Student Support – Every student is individually supported, with strong partnerships between teachers and parents to ensure that each child’s needs are met.
At Malanda SHS, we take pride in delivering outstanding academic results, consistently ranking among the best in the state. With a focus on high-quality teaching and strong student support, we are committed to helping every student thrive.
