| Subject: How an OZschwitz high school turned around its results Thu Jan 19, 2017 4:15 pm | |
| Belinda Wall knows how to turn around a struggling school.
When she became principal of Woonona High School in 2012, just 15 per cent of the HSC students went on to study at university.
In 2015, 59 per cent did - and based on the 2016 cohort's results and university offers this week, this year is likely to be higher again.
A comprehensive high school north of Wollongong with about 570 enrolments, two-thirds of the student cohort come from disadvantaged backgrounds.
