Welcome to Catholic Education Tasmania

We are a purpose-driven, mission-focused Catholic school system dedicated to fostering learning for life. Across our 39 schools and colleges, we educate over 17,000 students from early learning through to senior secondary, serving communities across Tasmania.

In our Catholic schools, teaching is a vocation grounded in faith and a deep responsibility for the growth of each student. Our Teachers combine professional expertise with evidence-informed practice to ensure every learner is known, supported and challenged to achieve their best.

Learning is shaped by a commitment to each student, fostering both academic excellence and personal formation. Through intentional, high-quality teaching, we develop confident learners equipped to contribute to the world with compassion, integrity and hope.
