Sydney Catholic Schools embraced rapid change in the first part of the decade, with a system-wide focus on greater equity and inclusion in its sport and arts offerings.

A total of 35,600 orchestral instruments were provided to students in Years 3 to 8 at all Sydney Catholic schools and primary schools received additional music resources by 2024 under the ground-breaking Amadeus Music Education Program.

St Mary’s Cathedral College Sydney began the transformation to a dual-campus, co-educational school in 2024, its bicentenary year.

St Vincent’s College Ashfield embraced a K-12 co-educational model in 2023 through school amalgamations and expanded offerings. Corpus Christi College Maroubra became the only Catholic co-educational high school in Sydney’s eastern suburbs that same year.

The three catholic high schools in the Sutherland Shire – Our Lady of Mercy College Burraneer, De La Salle College Caringbah and the newly renamed St Aloysius College Cronulla – became a unique education precinct with a shared HSC enrichment program in 2024. Each expanded to provide the community with both coeducational and single-sex school choices for their sons and daughters.
