Established in 1956 as Blacktown High School, the school enrolled approximately 822 students in 2022, from Year 7 to Year 12, of whom 0.02 percent identified as Indigenous Australians and 89 percent spoke English as a second or foreign language.[1] The school is operated by the NSW Department of Education in accordance with a curriculum developed by the New South Wales Education Standards Authority. The principal is David Calleja.
Its sister school is Blacktown Girls High School which is located adjacent to the high school.
History
The school was originally established in January 1956 as the co-educational Blacktown High School.[2] However, owing to a growing local population and in accordance with government policy, it was decided that the schools would be split into two single-sex schools: Blacktown Boys High School, and Blacktown Girls High School. Both were fully split by 1959. Blacktown Boys was officially opened on 17 October 1959 by the Deputy Premier and Minister of Education, Bob Heffron.
A school cadet unit was formed in 1961, and disbanded in the 1970s as multiple fights took place.
The school became a partially selective school in 2010.[3]
