Australian Performing Arts Grammar School (APGS)

The Australian Performing Arts Grammar School (APGS) is an exciting, innovative school for students with a passion for the creative and performing arts. APGS caters to students from Years 7 to 12 who are seeking professional quality training in the performing and creative arts in addition to attaining their RoSA and HSC. The school is a boutique institution designed specifically to meet the needs of young people and is dedicated to empowering creativity.

Extra-curricular activities: APGS offers students the opportunity to complete the NSW curriculum across three-and-a-half days and fill their Thursday afternoons and all day Friday with professional-level masterclasses in the performing and creative arts. This unique structure means that students have their afternoons and weekends free to engage with other extra-curricular activities and can continue to work with local studios and professional companies while participating in an arts-rich education at school.

Special Features: APGS offers a range of Academic and Performing Arts Scholarships as well as Indigenous Scholarships. Conveniently located at Broadway in Glebe, APGS is host to industry tutors and is integrated with tertiary music institutions and other creative partnerships. Students benefit from our
extensive network of professional performance opportunities. With small class sizes and broad selection of masterclasses to choose from, students design their own success. Students have freedom to choose their own performing arts classes and responsibility to balance their timetable with courses that complement their performing arts training and their academic pursuits.
