Apple Distinguished School 

We’re pleased to be recognized as an Apple Distinguished School for 2024–2027 for inspiring, imagining, and impacting teaching and learning schoolwide through continuous innovation.


Our Story

Recent enhancements have expanded opportunities for our learners, particularly through the redefinition of inclusive and diverse learning as K-12 frameworks, and the extension of our digital creativity course into the Junior School.  Maintaining our affiliation with the Apple Distinguished Schools Program will sustain our trajectory of growth and progress, capitalising on an extensive international network of like-minded educators whom we are equally committed to engaging with. The Corpus Christi College community exudes a genuine sense of wonder and appreciation for the myriad possibilities our journey holds. We are unwaveringly devoted to inquiry, reflection, and self-reflection, firmly believing that this program presents a reciprocal opportunity to cultivate conditions conducive to excellence in learning.
