City Campus, a great new school using powerful learning processes, is open in the heart of Launceston at the Inveresk Precinct.

City Campus uses Big Picture Education design principles embedding highly personalised learning pathways enhanced by a technology rich learning environment.

City Campus is a small school, offering intense learning. There is a maximum of 150 students enrolled in Grades 9-12.

City Campus is supported by and connected  to the local high schools, colleges, polytechnics, academies and the university.

The trades training facility located within City Campus is used in collaboration with community groups and local business enterprises to provide nationally accredited training.

City Campus is partnered with Big Picture Education Australia.

How does Big Picture Operate: 


‘We all learn best when we are really interested, when we are passionate. This school will be driven by the interests and passions of the students.’ says Lin Farrington the City Campus leader.

Parents will be engaged in the learning too. ‘We enrol the parents too. Each student will develop a learning plan with their Advisory Teacher and their parents’, says Lin. ‘That way, everyone is involved and can contribute to the learning’.
