What Makes Us Different
The Co-educational Advantage
Reflecting the world in which we live, work and play, co-education brings many benefits in preparing our students for our complex and evolving world.
Co-education provides a real-world environment for boys and girls to grow and learn together, relate to each other and on a daily basis live out the basics of respect, co-operation, kindness and equality. Students share leadership and academic opportunities, benefitting from equal involvement in sports, camps and co-curricular pursuits.
Co-education normalises and demystifies gender, reduces stereotypes, promotes appropriate behaviours and perspectives and ultimately prepares our graduates for the real world of university and the workplace into which they move.
Meet Rommi below and hear how Oxford Falls Grammar builds a co-educational community from the people who know it best, our students.

High Quality Teaching – Our Commitment to Excellence
At Oxford Falls Grammar, our educational philosophy is anchored in a rigorous, evidence-informed approach to teaching and learning. We recognise that the most profound student growth occurs when high-quality instruction is consistent across every faculty and every stage of a child’s schooling.
Central to our school identity is the cultivation of Collective Teacher Efficacy. Widely recognised as one of the most powerful indicators of student success, this is the shared conviction among our teachers that their combined professional actions directly drive superior student outcomes. By prioritising a culture of collaboration, we move beyond individual teaching to a unified, school-wide commitment to academic excellence. For our students, this means a cohesive learning experience backed by the strength of the entire teaching body.
Our educators operate within robust Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), organised by faculty and year-level cohorts. These teams engage in ongoing professional growth, focusing on:
- Scholarly Collaboration – Fostering a supportive environment where pedagogical knowledge is shared, challenged, and refined to meet the needs of every learner.
- Strategic Alignment: Ensuring that every professional development initiative contributes directly to the school’s mission, creating a powerful, school-wide impact on student improvement.
Oxford Falls Grammar also partners with respected educational experts and researchers who work with our staff throughout the year. These strategic partnerships help our teachers stay up to date with the latest developments in education and bring effective, research-informed strategies into the classroom. Through the integration of cognitive science, explicit instruction and collaborative professional learning, we create a learning environment where students are supported to understand deeply, think confidently and grow in their abilities.
We’re committed to supporting exceptional educators, because we care about the whole child. It’s about more than just grades; it’s about helping every student discover their unique gifts and building a foundation of resilience and grace that will sustain them for a lifetime of service.”


Christianity in Action
Oxford Falls Grammar is a school with an inspiring and dynamic Christian foundation that celebrates faith in many ways. Through active involvement in a caring and vibrant Christian community, student’s see Christianity ‘lived out in practice’ by their peers and teachers.
Under the guidance of our Dean of Missions and Ministry, Christian Studies Teachers and Youth Chaplains, students develop into self-aware, respectful, and compassionate adults. Our contemporary Christian studies program teaches students in an engaging, meaningful and relevant way about God and His love for them. We believe each child should feel loved and valued, with a sense of purpose and identity.
Outreach Program
Our Christian ethos is demonstrated through the OFG Outreach Program. It is a K-12 philanthropic initiative that seeks to raise money for less fortunate children and communities across Australia and Asia. In Year 10 and 11, students have the opportunity to participate in an annual overseas mission trip. Oxford Falls Grammar fosters a strong culture of generosity. We believe it is important to encourage students to think beyond themselves and to help others around them.
