Cabramatta High School is the local high school of Cabramatta, an urbanised suburb located in south-west Sydney, Australia. The school was established in 1958 as the suburb's first high school. It has attracted much undue negative publicity in the last decade over sensationalised media reports that drug and gang-related crimes were directly linked to Cabramatta High School students. Despite this dark history, Cabramatta High School is becoming increasingly popular within the region, with impressive records of academic and practical successful students, mostly achieving grade-averages higher than most other schools in the local area. Well known for its multiculturalism, Cabramatta High School consists of a very diverse range of students and staff, with majority coming from non-English speaking backgrounds, predominantly Vietnamese and Chinese.
