At Lake Macquarie High School we aim to prepare students for the world through challenge and achievement in a committed, caring and creative environment. The school is:
- Comprehensive
- Co-educational
- Inclusive
Student welfare underpins the school's success with values of tolerance, understanding, responsibility, caring, respect and co-operation being part of the school culture. Leadership activities are offered to all students from Years 7-12 and there are many opportunities for students to be involved in the life of the school.
The small size of the school is a feature of its ability to offer quality and personal educational experiences. The special needs of gifted and talented students are recognised and catered for, as are those students who best learn independently. There is remediation available for students with learning difficulties.
