The Gap State High School
Honours Program is for high performing academic students who have the ability,
initiative and a strong commitment to academic studies.
The students are provided with an innovative
curriculum, resources and opportunities
for those students who excel academically. Core learning is matched to
skill levels of students and includes extension and acceleration opportunities.
In 2025, The Gap State High School is offering for the first time, a German Immersion program as an option for the Honours Program of Excellence. Students may wish to apply for either Honours: Student leadership or Honours: Germain Immersion.
Academic Honours - Student Leadership
An opportunity to lead.
The Gap State High School is proud to announce its Honours Signature Program. This initiative encourages students’ academic mastery anchored with The Gap State High School’s core values. The Gap State High School celebrates performance orientated pursuits; however, mastery learning offers additional benefits as student enjoyment and gratification isn’t related exclusively to report performance indicators.
Academic Honours - German Immersion
The Honours: German Immersion Program is a program of academic excellence. It offers students in our school a unique opportunity to challenge themselves academically while becoming highly proficient in German. Honours: German Immersion is designed for students with little or no previous background in German. Students learn a number of subjects using German as the medium of communication. Use of German as the medium of communication will enable students to engage with creative thought and expressions in German in a wide range of academic and cultural contexts.
