The NSW Government has announced it will relocate and expand Maitland Grossmann High School to deliver modern, purpose-built facilities on a larger site for up to 1,500 students.
The school is set to open on a new site in 2030 and will continue operating from its current site, ensuring continuity of learning for students.
The state government says further details, including the new location, will be shared with the community later this year once commercial negotiations for the site have been finalised.
Completed works include new covered walkways, shade structures and outdoor seating, a vocational education and training (VET) hospitality kitchen, replacement of timber retaining walls, and fresh external paintwork.
The school’s 140-year legacy and heritage will be honoured as part of the design process for the new buildings.
Funding to support the relocation of Maitland Grossmann High School is included in the NSW Government’s 2026-27 Budget, which also includes a brand new public school and preschool in rapidly-growing Chisholm.
“The relocation and expansion of Maitland Grossmann High School on a new site will ensure the next generation of Maitland students have access to the world class public education they deserve,” said Ms Prue Car, Minister of Education and Early Learning.
Maitland Grossmann High School Principal Neil Fara said he felt “an enormous sense of pride and optimism” following the announcement.
“This investment is a powerful acknowledgment of the advocacy of our students, families, staff and broader community, who have worked tirelessly over the last three years to ensure Maitland Grossmann High School’s future is supported,” he said.
“It reflects the strength of our growing community and ensures future generations of young people will have access to world-class learning environments and opportunities close to home.”
