　　Chatham High School（http://www.liuxue360.com/au/chatham-hs/）is a welcoming large comprehensive school that services the town of Taree and adjacent rural and coastal areas. The school community aims to meet the needs of all students and provide education in a safe and friendly learning environment. Experienced, dedicated staff, noted for their caring attitude to all students, and a strong welfare structure underpin all programs. A broad school curriculum, as well as diverse cultural and sporting pursuits, are provided for all students. An alternative timetable for senior students increases access to Technical and Further Education (TAFE) and vocational courses. Subjects vary from our award-winning vocational subjects that give thorough job training through to the rigorous academic subjects that provide opportunity for entry into university. Excellent facilities, physical and technological, provide an environment where students have easy access to learning. Chatham High School is a Priority Schools Program funded school supporting the development of literacy and numeracy skills for all students. A Support Unit provides a comprehensive range of educational services for students with special needs.
