Acknowledging Academic Excellence

College Awards

To encourage students to excel and to develop a growth mindset which reflects our Learner Profile, a new system of Academic Awards will be launched this year.

Celebrating Growth,
Achievement and Spirit
We hold our annual Awards Assembly to honour boys who live our Learner Profile and embody core values.

Whether excelling academically, showing remarkable growth, or standing out for school spirit and service, each recipient reminds us that success takes many forms and every milestone deserves recognition.

There will be four new awards at our semester academic assemblies:

  • Learner Profile Award:  for students in the top 10% of their cohort based on Learner Profile score.
  • School Spirit Award: for students who show a commitment to the ethos of St Edward’s including: attendance at both the Swimming and Athletic Carnivals, attendance at Founder’s Day, attendance on the final day of each term (1, 2 and 3), service contribution to the College, completion of mandatory Waterford hours, combined with a positive record for uniform and behaviour.
  • Student Growth Award: for students who have shown substantial growth in the learner profile compared with other students in their cohort.
  • Academic Award: students in the top 3% of the cohort in a subject.
