Aims
QASMT was advertised as a school for “Queensland’s best and brightest” students. It was designed as a school where the most academically minded Year 10, 11 and 12 students in the state could conglomerate in a university-like environment.
As part of the 5-year school review, the QASMT Vision Statement changed in 2012 to:
"QASMT is committed to providing world-class education that nurtures excellence, fosters innovation and celebrates diversity."
This supersedes the previous QASMT Vision Statement of:
"The Queensland Academy will be internationally recognised for academic excellence while delivering a holistic education within a future focussed learning environment. Our students will be creative and active leaders who have a humanitarian outlook. We will promote connections with local, national and international stakeholders and provide an environment where intellectual risk taking and critical inquiry are valued."

“In truth, the care and expense of our fathers aims only at furnishing our heads with knowledge; of judgement and virtue, little news.”
