The 21st century learner is digitally savvy, socially engaged, enterprising and entrepreneurial. Whilst they are still hungry for foundational knowledge and skills that are part of all subject disciplines, our students and their employers want more.

As a school, CGGS is genuinely willing to engage with this challenge and as a result, we have designed 17 Upskill days to be rolled out in 2023. Partnering with universities, external organisations and industry experts, the Upskill program delivers age-appropriate, relevant, engaging and immersive learning for all our students.

Students have the opportunity to earn stand-alone microcredentials which certify their achievements in specific skills or capabilities. These credentials contribute to each student’s digital portfolio, which they can share with employers and tertiary institutions.

In total, we are offering 150 different programs across Years 7 – 12, all designed to ‘upskill’ our CGGS students.
