Blackfriars Priory School is a Catholic Dominican school for boys that promotes the spiritual, intellectual, physical and social development of each member of the school community. We are committed, in cooperation with parents, to engage students in an educational experience within the context of a Catholic Dominican community which is fulfilling and rewarding. Our vision is to deliver academic excellence in boys’ education through the provision of a transformative, vibrant and reflective learning community that equips and inspires our students to confidently and successfully participate as men of integrity in a changing world.
The Blackfriars Senior School provides an education that is well-rounded academically, socially, emotionally and physically. Senior School students completing the South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) can opt for a fully academic program on the pathway to achieving an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) and tertiary studies, a program rich in Vocational Education & Training (VET) leading directly to employment, or a mixture of these based on the student’s individual strengths and interests.
As part of the Catholic Education SA STEM Learning Initiative, STEM vocational pathways have been included under the Students tab for all VET courses listed in the CESA Directory.

The website contains detailed information about Registered Training Organisations (RTO) and Accredited courses. Contact the VET and Careers Coordinators at your schools for further information.
