Brighton High School build complete

by Brighton Council

Construction on the new Brighton High School is now complete, with the school set to open in 2025.

“Brighton is a thriving community and this school will cater for the growing number of local students,” Premier Jeremy Rockliff said. “The Brighton High School is Tasmania’s biggest public education infrastructure project in more than a decade.”

The dignitaries and potential future students

The Minister for Education, Jo Palmer, said the development of Brighton High School has been shaped through community consultation.

“We sought input from students, educators and the local community about what they wanted to see in a new school and I look forward to seeing it come alive as students start their journey next year,” Minister Palmer said. “We know that education is the most powerful driver for improving economic and social outcomes in Tasmania.”

In 2025, Brighton High School will welcome just Year 7 and Year 11 students, but as these students move up, the school will add Years 8, 9, 10, and 12.
