Context Statement Gleeson College is a Catholic co-educational secondary school situated in the north-eastern suburbs of Adelaide. Nurturing students from Years 7 to 12, Gleeson College is well resourced and is complemented by the shared learning and facilities accessed by three schools on a unique shared campus, ONE+: Gleeson College, Pedare Christian College and Golden Grove High School. Gleeson College takes its name from the Very Reverend James Gleeson. Throughout his long and distinguished career, Archbishop Gleeson had a strong personal commitment to the pursuit of justice and peace, and we believe that the students of Gleeson College continue to strive for these goals, in the Catholic tradition. At Gleeson College all members of our community aim to fulfil the College’s Vision through the Gleeson 10 (the College’s core values and indicators), with one heart. The College operates a vertical house system of Pastoral Care, and our staff are highly regarded for their partnership with parents and students, dedication to academic excellence and the wellbeing of students, as well as a strong commitment to their own professional development.
