Burnside State High School currently has approximately 440 students in years 8 to 12.
Our school services the surrounding areas of Burnside, Perwillowen, Nambour, North Arm, Yandina, Coolum, Bli Bli, Coes Creek, Mapleton and Woombye.
Our staff of more than 35 teaching staff and 30 support staff are experienced and highly qualified. They are committed to providing quality public education. Additional support is provided by a fulltime Guidance Officer, a Behaviour Management advisor
who visits 2 days per week, a school chaplain and a school nurse.
The major focus of Burnside is relationships. We place a priority on quality relationships and this emphasis has provided the key ingredient for its outstanding success across all year levels. People work hard at getting on together and because we are a small school it is easier to monitor student progress and provide support.
