Top Queensland schools in 2015

With the release of the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority's Year 12 Outcomes report, the top-performing schools in Queensland for 2015 have now been revealed. The top 20 schools, as determined by the percentage of OP-eligible students who received an OP between 1 and 5, include a mix of school types, with 13 independent schools, five Catholic schools and two government schools. Seven girls' schools and five boys' schools made the list, while the remaining eight were coeducational.

While these results offer useful insight into the performance of schools in your area, there are many things to take into consideration when choosing a school for your child. See Choosing a school for more information.
