Kelvin Grove State College is part of a unique educational precinct. It is only three kilometres from Brisbane City’s central business district. Our college seeks to provide a supportive and engaging learning environment for all. Our focus is on excellence in all areas of education. This is articulated and promoted through expectations of a strong work ethic, pride in, and recognition of, socially just practices including valuing social diversity, and civic participation.
Kelvin Grove State College is a P-12 school with three sub-schools: Junior, Middle and Senior.
Junior School Prep-Year 5
With a firm focus on the acquisition and consolidation of literacy and numeracy skills, the Junior School provides students with a solid start to their formal schooling. Best practice Prep classrooms, in partnership with the Queensland University of Technology (QUT), ensure that our students’ first year at Kelvin Grove State College will ready them for future learning.

Middle School Years 6-9
Kelvin Grove State College Middle School has been developed in response to the specific needs of young adolescents. Early adolescence is a distinct period in a child’s life often characterised by rapid physical growth, exposure to a range of social pressures and changes in intellectual, emotional and moral development. We are committed to implementing programs, policies and practices to foster adolescents’ development and learning in a supportive and positive manner and also believe that the key to a successful middle schooling experience lies in the strength of the partnership between the teacher, the student and home. We encourage all parents and carers to actively participate and be involved in their child’s education through the middle school years.

Senior School Years 10-12
In the Senior School we promote the concept of excellence in teaching and learning. Students are provided with opportunities to excel within academic, excellence and vocational areas. We focus on collaboratively working to improve student engagement and to optimise student potential, allowing a focus on the importance of life-long learning
