Barker College is a Pre-K to Year 12 coeducational Anglican School, with boarding from Years 10 - 12. The School is located at Hornsby, 25 kms to the north of Sydney at the junction of the North Shore and Central Coast railway lines, and near the start of the Sydney-Newcastle M1 Freeway.


Barker’s curriculum in the Secondary School is adaptive and flexible, allowing for student choice and catering for interest and ability. Our students are taught to think critically, apply knowledge in new situations and develop the skills needed to become lifelong learners. Our curriculum develops the knowledge and skills needed by our future leaders; it challenges students and prepares them for a future that is in many ways undefined. With the ability to offer such a broad curriculum, the School’s students are enriched in their interest areas. Barker endeavours to meet the diverse needs of students with both support and extension programs.


Every Barker student enjoys the benefits of a broad, well-rounded co-curricular program that includes creative and performing arts, sport, STEAM, robotics, debating and service and leadership development. Students are involved in the Outdoor Education program, allowing opportunities for Extended Stay in Central Australia, trips to Barker’s Outdoor Education property, The Grange, in Mt Victoria, along with camps and other outdoor opportunities. Students are also able to take part in our long-standing Cadets program.


In partnership with local Aboriginal communities, Barker College operates three Indigenous campuses for Aboriginal students from Kindergarten up to Year 8. Two regional campuses are in the NSW Central Coast and Lower Hunter Valley and one remote campus in the Gove Peninsula in North East Arnhem Land, NT. Our children in these three schools are achieving remarkable rates of attendance and strong growth in literacy and numeracy.  


The School enjoys a global reputation of making significant contributions to the education of students, in particular in the area of STEAM and Robotics. In 2022, Barker College was admitted to the Robotics Hall of Fame, the only school outside the United States to achieve this recognition. Continuing the vision to inspire global hope, the Robotics team shares knowledge and understanding with teams around the world, supporting the development of Indigenous teams in remote Australia and students in third world countries.
