About Westminster

Westminster, where you can achieve more than you thought possible.

We offer superb facilities set on 23 spacious hectares, more than 40 subject choices in Year 12, around 200 sporting teams, activity clubs and ensembles, outstanding wellbeing programs, and teachers who are leaders in their field. Westminster provides the best resources for an exceptional education, giving boys and girls from Early Learning to Year 12 the opportunity to achieve more than they thought possible.

Established in 1961, Westminster School is a leading coeducational independent day and Boarding School in Marion, a south-west suburb of Adelaide, South Australia, close to beaches and the city. We are affiliated with the Uniting Church, and are active members of Round Square, an international network of innovative schools. Westminster has around 1200 students from Early Learning to Year 12.

We acknowledge the Kaurna people as the traditional custodians of the land that encompasses Westminster School. We pay respect to the Elders past, present and emerging, and recognise that their cultural and heritage beliefs are important to them and us today.

School Performance

Westminster School takes a holistic approach to education and aims to develop 'the whole person'. Our measures for success reflect this ethos, valuing student achievement broadly in terms of academic results, participation in Arts, Sport, and Service Programs, and development of skills for leadership and good citizenship.
