Silkwood is an independent private, government-accredited school located in a stunning bushland setting in the Gold Coast Hinterland. The school caters for children from Prep to Year 12, and offers a Playgroup experience for 15 month to 4 year olds.Silkwood is an innovative learning environment, so does things a little differently than other schools. Our view of education requires us to be flexible, responsive, open to new research and uncompromising in our endeavours to keep the spirit of learning shining bright for our students. This generates a dynamic, considered and constantly evolving school environment. For this reason, you won't find our program replicated in any other school – it is unique!Silkwood has developed ‘The Silkwood Way', an educational approach that places personalised student learning plans at the centre and uses student interests and needs, innovative learning styles, flexible timetables and the Australian Curriculum to intentionally enhance every child's learning adventure. The traditional educational model was born out of an era where intelligence was focused on knowledge and there was a need to grow an industrialised workforce; the world has changed and Silkwood is re-imagining education in a contemporary and innovative context.The Silkwood Way is a credible education choice for parents who seek an innovative learning environment that challenges traditional schooling to enhance student learning.At Silkwood, we take our commitment to create empowered learning pathways for all of our students seriously. We are prepared to give our best, explore possibilities and think outside the square to enhance the learning adventure for each child. The education journey of each child should match their uniqueness!Our bush location is truly unique, and complemented by purpose-built learning spaces that blend into our natural environment. This creates an indoor-outdoor learning environment designed to enhance each child's learning journey.
