Leppington High School is a recent comprehensive public high school located on Rickard Road, Leppington, in the rapidly expanding South Western Sydney growth corridor. The school will primarily serve the communities of Leppington and Denham Court, areas that have experienced significant residential growth and increasing demand for high-quality public education over the past decade.

Opening in 2027, Leppington High School will initially enrol Year 7 students, with projected enrolments of approximately 213 students in its foundation year. The school will grow progressively as additional year groups are introduced, supporting a projected student population of up to 2,000 students when fully established.

The school is being developed in stages, with Stage 1 providing capacity for approximately 800 students while incorporating the core infrastructure required for future expansion. Purpose-built facilities will include 37 general learning spaces, three support learning classrooms, and a range of specialist learning hubs designed using contemporary learning environments and modern methods of construction.

As a partially selective high school,



Leppington High School will offer both a comprehensive educational pathway and an academically selective stream, providing opportunities for high-potential and gifted students alongside a strong commitment to excellence, equity and inclusion for all learners.
