Brisbane Grammar School

culture is that the school works close- ly with parents and students. Carroll is keen to emphasise that through such close relationships, the school can better itself in enriching its students’ education and lives: “A tripartite rela- tionship that has the student at its fo- cus, is at the core of who we are as a school.” The school recognises the value peo- ple place on word of mouth, especially in boarding, with the satisfaction of its current parents playing an important role in continued growth. Williams-Jones is quick to explain: “I believe that what sells boarding is satisfied students and parents. Put- ting our current parents at the heart of our development and ensuring top quality experiences, is why we contin- ue to see families eager to join Bris- bane Grammar School, and more specifically the school’s boarding community.” In terms of physical developments, the constantly-evolving school is mov- ing ahead with the exciting state-of- the-art STEAM – science, technology, engineering, art and maths – precinct. This will complement The Lilley Centre, completed in 2010, which was driv- en by a vision to create powerful new 21st century learning experiences for students.
