What is TGX?
TGX is an innovative future-focused learning program being developed at Toowoomba Grammar School in consultation with external partners. It is designed to connect classroom learning with real-world application, helping boys build the skills, mindset and adaptability they need in a rapidly changing world.
Through hands-on projects, industry engagement and innovative learning experiences, TGX empowers students to apply their knowledge confidently across a wide range of future pathways.
The program is delivered through three important lenses: Agriculture, Industry, and Environment. These lenses reflect our region’s identity and future opportunities, providing authentic contexts for learning while embracing a multi-disciplinary approach across the curriculum.
Importantly, TGX is designed to benefit all students, no matter their future career path. The skills students build will be industry-agnostic - valuable for any profession.
The pilot program will commence in 2026 for a select group of Year 10 and 11 students, with a long-term vision to embed TGX across Years 5 to12.
Why TGX?
The world of work is changing — fast.
No career will be untouched by digitisation or emerging technologies, including robotics, construction, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing and environmental innovation. In this environment, academic knowledge alone is no longer enough.
TGX is our proactive response to this change.
We want our boys to graduate with the confidence, capability and mindset to navigate complexity, adapt to emerging industries and contribute meaningfully to any field. TGX allows students to simulate real challenges, critically apply their learning and develop the transferable skills required for success well beyond school.
How TGX Works
TGX strengthens our existing curriculum through:
- Real-world problems and learning experiences
- Strong industry collaboration
- Purpose-built learning environments, including the Design, Engineering and Technology (DET) Centre and Agricultural and Industry Centre (AIC)
- Cross-disciplinary projects grounded in authentic challenges
Rather than replacing traditional learning, TGX enhances and extends it, allowing boys to connect knowledge with application, theory with practice and learning with purpose.
