The barton Senior College

  I believe we have the best learning community in Australia. The College was established as a specialist senior secondary College by the SA government in 1991. Our teachers understand that you expect some independence in your learning and have designed courses that are relevant to your busy lives. All senior secondary students are welcomed into our community.

  Thebarton is a place where your teachers want to work with you and students want to pursue their education. We have a strong commitment to excellence, which is reflected in the outstanding academic results achieved by students from the College in recent years.

  The teaching and learning atmosphere at Thebarton is cooperative and generally informal. This is just the atmosphere to help you to achieve your goals whether they be continuing to tertiary education or finding work.

  We are about to commence enrolment in our Semester 2, 2012 programs. I would urge prospective students to contact the College without delay to arrange an enrolment appointment. Our counsellors can help you to find a course of study to prepare you for the education or training that best suits your chosen career pathway. Contact and appointments can easily be made by completing the form in "Enrol Now" using the link on the side of this page.

  The College has a strong values base and we proudly fly the United Nations flag alongside the Australian flag at the front of the school. This is because we are a United Nations School for Global Peace and actively teach peace-building and community responsibility in our curriculum. We also provide a range of support services for our students that are unique to our community.

  Gymnasium

  You may use the gym during breaks when staff are available to supervise.

  The timetable, detailing gym availability and activities offered, is posted on the student noticeboard. The gym is also used by students in Physical Education classes.

  Library

  The Library is available for individual research or private study every day and on Tuesday and Wednesday nights until approximately 6.30 pm.

  Staff are available to help you with:

  reference queries

  use of the catalogue (OPAC)

  location of resources

  selection of appropriate resources

  using the computers and other technology

  You can use a wide range of resources for reference and borrowing including print materials (books, periodicals, vertical file information and newspapers).

  You can also use the information and communications technology (CD-ROM, on-line databases, the Internet and videos).

  You borrow the textbooks needed for various subjects each semester (or year) from Textbook Services within the Library.

  Computing Resources

  Computers and Internet access are provided at Thebarton to help you with your learning. You can use computers when working in a class or for doing your own College work or study. You can work in any room that is open and has a spare computer. You are given a set amount of time allocated for Internet use. This should be enough for normal study purposes. You can pay extra money if you use the Internet more. You are also allocated an amount of paper for each subject you are enrolled in. Additional internet time and printing can be purchased at the office.

  Study Centre

  We encourage you to use the Study Centre (located in the area between the Library and the Science building) to work individually or in small groups during your free lessons.

  You can also get help with assignments from the teachers on duty. This help could be subject-based or they can help with your written language. Teachers from a wide variety of subjects will be available at various times during the week or you can make appointments to work with your own subject teachers in the Study Centre.
