Tamborine Mountain College is a small, independent, co-educational, non-denominational, secondary college in the Gold Coast hinterland. The College’s intention is to always remain a small school, believing smaller class size ensures optimum learning with a ‘family’ like environment.  While remaining small the College has set standards in the areas of academics, behaviour, co-curricular activities and life experiences.

As a school we are committed to:

• Excellence in learning and teaching
• Social justice and equity
• Lifelong learning that empowers individuals and groups and enriches society
• Participation and consultation
• Responsiveness to diversity and changing needs
• Effectiveness and efficiency
• Accountability
• Respect for the attitudes, culture and beliefs of the College
• Provision of a caring environment characterised by self-respect, self-discipline and consideration for others

Tamborine Mountain College has a commitment to the Adelaide Declaration of National Goals for Schooling in the Twenty-First Century. Tamborine Mountain College supports these goals and takes them into account in providing schooling to students in its care.
