In their words
Which schools suit what your child loves?
Search for a sport, instrument, subject or worry to see which Brisbane schools people mention it at, and what they said. Tick up to three schools to compare them.
46 schools where people talk about extension and gifted programs.
Order:Best matchMost talked aboutLowest feesA to Z
How we work these numbers out
- Order. “Best match” puts schools where your exact word comes up first. “Most talked about” uses the share of reviews that mention it. Neither is a ranking of how good a school is.
- Comes up in X% of reviews is the share of the school's reviews that mention your search. The Brisbane average is the same share across all Brisbane schools.
- Speak well, mixed or raise concerns is worked out by software, using only the sentences about your search. It's right most of the time but not always, so read what people said.
- What students did comes from the sports and activities former students ticked in their review. We show it when at least 3 answered.
- Evidence is strong when 5 or more of at least 10 reviews mention it, some when 2 or more people do, and thin when only one person does.
- Facts such as fees, ATAR and enrolments come from each school's own documents. Fees cover different year levels at different schools, so compare carefully.
- Open Day Reflections come from our visits to 2026 open days. They're useful, but they reflect the school's own voice.

They have an AFL Academy. They should have more sport teams though as there is not many.

Review Why we chose this school
It’s a brand new school with great facilities and great reputation just after opening two years. My child passed the selective entry exam as out of catchment student and gained entry to its Biomedical and Science Academy. It's a state school so the cost is minimal. We are very happy with the school.

Things we like: New buildings with modern technology; Quality staff who really cares about students' growth; Inner city location with lots of transportation options; Biomedical and Science Academy in collaboration with with UQ; Great transition program for year 7 students where they stay in the same classroom with the same teachers for the whole year, similar to primary school; While students have different selective classes from Year 9, they attend the same Learner-preneur class with the same cohort of students across years so the friends group formed in early years will be maintained; Meet and Greet events in term one to talk to each teacher individually; Student-led conference where the student presents to the parents about their growth over the year; Commercial kitchen and woodwork workshops where students learn practical life skills;

Likes: Dedicated teachers who go out of their way to support students. Strong academic focus with extension and enrichment options. Diverse cultural environment that teaches respect and global awareness. Good music and sports programs. Modern facilities, especially the science labs and the new performing arts centre Dislikes: The school can feel quite large and sometimes a bit impersonal. Parking and drop-off zones are often congested.

I would definitely recommend Brisbane bayside to others. Brisbane bayside is a smaller highschool which meant that there were far more opportunities for students such as sports, tutoring, extracurricular activities. Additionally there’s something for everyone, for example bayside offers stem programs academic excellence programs, sport extension programs. Although bayside has gotten a bad rep due to the area it is in there were never any issues for the students and overall it was a very good highschool experience for me.

I had high academic expectations for the school, hoping for strong teaching, a well-rounded curriculum, and opportunities for advanced learning. I’m happy to say it has exceeded my expectations, especially in providing a solid foundation in both core subjects and critical thinking. The school has also offered enrichment programs that I didn’t initially expect, which has been a pleasant surprise and has really challenged my daughter in a positive way.
