Arthur Phillip High School and Parramatta Public School is an innovative education project designed to meet the expected population growth. Situated in Parramatta’s CBD, the new teaching and learning hub will enable future-focused learning in modern indoor and outdoor landscaped spaces.
Arthur Phillip High School is set to become the first high-rise High School in NSW. The new 17-storey tower will be adjoined by a separate four-storey curved building housing the new primary school, Parramatta Public School.

The project will showcase delivery of a multi-storey education facilities in response to increasing residential density, and once complete will accommodate up to 2,000 high school and 1,000 primary school students.
Stage 1 landscape works start in March 2019 and will be complete by August 2019, with Stage 2 commencing in April 2020 and full project completion by August 2020.
