Towards our second century – marking our Centenary in 2025

Towards Our Second Century

Our strategic plan - "Towards our second century: a strategy for St Mark's College"

As the College looks to its Centenary, in May 2022 the College's Board adopted an ambitious new strategic plan following extensive consultation.

Following calls for input in e-newsletters and in other ways, valuable feedback was received from Old Collegians and friends of the College, student leaders, the St Mark's College Foundation Board, and College staff.

The College Board carefully considered all input, and formally adopted the new strategic plan, "Towards our second century: a strategy for St Mark's College".

The strategic plan has been reviewed and updated by the Board in May 2023 and May 2024.

The plan has seven strategic priorities:

  1. Actively encouraging academic excellence and supporting career preparation
  2. Promoting student wellbeing and belonging in a safe, respectful, diverse, and inclusive community
  3. Working to support all students who need it, and to promote excellence and diversity, through a major expansion of scholarships and other financial support for students
  4. Developing the strongest team of staff who contribute to an exceptional student learning experience
  5. Providing outstanding facilities and services in an inspiring and sustainable physical environment
  6. Developing the financial resources needed to achieve these priorities
  7. Engaging our alumni and friends in lifelong connections and in positioning St Mark’s for its second century.
