The Knox School

I’ve attended this schools for 7 years and it has been amazing. The facilities are very good and the staff and teachers are very nice.
I have just one request to add more sport and to add a leather ball cricket team.
Thanks

I have been at this school for 11 years. The school is like my second home. All the staff are friendly and the curriculum is up to standard. The students are caring. You can tell that the school values are used proudly.
Really recommended.

The School is amazing, im currently attending year 7 and im enjoying the experience of high school. All the facilites are very Clean and the Students are Respectful and Kind.

Our children started at TKS in Junior school. We originally chose the school based on the experience of previous family members and their positive endorsements. Years on and our kids are almost through senior school and we have nothing but good comments to make about our own experience there. The smaller class sizes have been very beneficial, not only for the personalised learning but for the greater relationships between the whole school cohort. The staff really get to know the students and this is further enhanced by the extensive tutor program that has been implemented in recent years. Throughout the years we have experienced the kindness of many staff members willing to go over and above in supporting our children on their academic and personal journeys. It really is a beautiful school community.

Since moving our daughter to the Knox School during Year 7 she has blossomed into a resilient young woman today. This is a tribute to the professionalism and the empathetic nature of the staff who have each individual student’s best interests at heart. We are highly appreciative of the direction set by the Principal and his entire leadership team. Our daughter has also reaped the benefits of the caring and embracing community at The Knox School.

We highly recommend The Knox School.

A great school in a small community with amazing teachers. We feel it offers our children endless opportunities & nurtures their talent. They love going to school.

Strong academic results, personalised learning and broad education. Staff always communicative and available with a strong community feel across students, staff & parents. Classroom, Music and Sports environments are inclusive and confidence building.

We've been with The Knox School for 9 years now with 2 children attending and I have only positive things to say about TKS.

The school is a tight knit community and the smaller size allows students to experience personalised learning which we felt greatly benefited our children. The school has strong academic results and an equally impressive Music and Performing Arts program that encourages and nurtures talent from a young age. This is in addition to STEM, Tournament of Minds, Entrepreneurship, Equestrian and many such programs that allow students to have a range of experiences outside of the standard curriculum.

The teachers are fantastic, approachable and willing to address any concerns that parents might have. The Principal and his leadership team are always accessible and open to feedback/suggestions.

I would highly recommend The Knox School for those looking to invest in not just a quality education for their children but to experience the many extra-curricular opportunities that the school has to offer.

I have three students at The Knox School and have experienced both Junior and Senior Schools, as well as government primary schools. All three of my children have blossomed at this school, due to the large number of opportunities offered to them, that may not have been possible at a larger school. The sense of community and drive for individual learning pathways are allowing them to be better prepared for life after school, than if they were attending schools who might spoon-feed teaching. Leadership, Music, Tournament of Minds, STEM, Entrepreneurship are just a few of the areas in which a student can thrive. The Principal and staff are all approachable and any problems I have come across so far have been satisfactorily dealt with. I would recommend this school to those considering a non-government, non-denominational school, where children are encouraged to go beyond the curriculum and find a passion in the many extra-curricular options on offer.

We couldn't be more satisfied with our experience at The Knox School. After moving both children from an elite private school their academic learning took off. Our daughter graduated in 2018 and exceeded all expectations. The academic and social care and concern for both children has been first class. Most impressed!

We have found The Knox School provides a wonderful learning environment with a great community feel. The staff and teachers are engaged with a positive focus. The school offers a well rounded education and has great facilities.

As a past student myself of the Knox School from the 1990's, I am now delighted to be sending my child to the school. In the 18 months my child as been attending The Knox School I have been very happy with all aspects of the learning. The Knox School Principal Mr Alan Shaw is wonderful, he has a very modern style of leadership and is very approachable. I would recommend this as a fantastic school for any child as it is a very caring school and has a real sense of community.

The Knox School (TKS) provides a welcoming and inclusive environment with leading educational thinking and practice. It is a relatively small school where teachers and students know each other well. I am impressed by the leadership of the school and the quality of the staff. As a current parent at the school, I believe it would be a rare child that would not thrive in the pastoral care and educational environment fostered at TKS. The school produces excellent academic results through challenging its students to think, not though spoon-feeding them. One of the most attractive qualities of the school for me is that it truly seeks to prepare its students for life after secondary education. It has a range of complementary programs in academic disciplines, music and sports which provide students with opportunities to broaden their thinking and learn leadership, empathy, resilience and other critical life skills.

I have enjoyed a long association with The Knox School (TKS) and have found it to be an outstanding school. It has a focus on strong values to support the students education. TKS has consistently provided a nurturing environment where Teachers are engaged with a positive focus on the best education for students. The school has strong leadership with a vision for delivering personalised learning. As the school grows it keeps getting better! I would certainly recommend The Knox School as an Independent school of choice.

The admission staff was lack of friendly and enthusiastic with poor service. While Tintern is ready to offer me a private school tour and very kind asking a lot of questions and make arrangement to suit my timetable for school tour, this knox school admin does not bother to ask anything, just simply tell me to go to the website, search information about school tour myself and join if I can. Ridiculous service and attitude, not worth to pay money for.

The Knox School is an independent, co-educational, non-denominational day school, located in the eastern Melbourne suburb of Wantirna South, Victoria.

Really great experience, I am in year 6 and just learnt all about DSLR cameras and so much more! Bailey I agree Mr. White is amazing!

I did not like this school at all the teachers weren't great except for one a couple of nice students happy I left and went to Tintern when I did and you also took one of my favourite teachers from Tintern Mr White
