Trafalgar High School is committed to promoting an understanding through the school and its community that all students need to acquire the knowledge, skills and attributes for a globalised world.
We aim to:
- Expose students to international perspectives through subject disciplines.
- Encourage a focus on contemporary skills ( including critical thinking and problem solving, creativity, collaboration and communication ) specifically in certain subjects and classes.
- Develop an appreciation and understanding of the interconnections between Australia and other countries and cultures.
- Understand international imperatives as part of the world of work and global citizenship.
