Matthew Flinders Anglican College has a proven record of academic excellence. We proudly maintain our position as a leading school on the Sunshine Coast and one of the top independent schools in Queensland.

Our students enjoy a culture of deep learning and engagement, which sees our graduates achieve outstanding results. The Class of 2023 graduates achieving a strong ATAR median score of 90.55, including 18 students who achieved an ATAR of 99 or above.

Flinders also consistently ranks strongly in the annual NAPLAN across both the Primary and Secondary Schools, demonstrating the value we place on developing students' fundamental literacy and numeracy skills.

This strong teaching and learning reputation is a reflection of our students who are motivated to learn and excel. It’s also a credit to our teachers who inspire curiosity and confidence, and our greater College community who uphold strong values, and provide support and care for our students in a myriad of ways. 

No ‘typical’ Flinders student

While academic standards and student motivation levels at Flinders are high, there is no ‘typical’ Flinders student. Our teaching staff are a talented and diverse group of professionals who support and challenge each child in their unique talents, interests and learning needs.

Flinders students share a common desire: The aim to excel in learning and life, and to be part of a community of learners. At Flinders, we support one another and work together to enable each student to realise their full potential.

National Assessment Outcomes

Our College community proudly guided and supported our Class of 2023 through the fourth year of the new ATAR system. In 2023 there were 18 Flinders students who achieved an ATAR of 99 or above, and a further 7 students who achieved an ATAR of 98 or above. Meanwhile, 54.47% of eligible students achieved an ATAR greater than 90.

There was also one student, Agnethe Kjaer, who achieved the highest ATAR possible of 99.95 in 2023. She was one of only 34 students in Queensland to achieve this top score. This is the fourth consecutive year a Flinders student has achieved the top 99.95 ATAR score, a remarkable achievement!

Flinders is also committed to guiding our students through the National Assessment Program - Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). In 2023, on average, Flinders students performed in excess of the national average (mean scale scores) in all domain areas and across all year levels.
