Tumbi Umbi High School has been open and developing since 1997. At the present time classes cover the years 7-10 years.

Students at Tumbi Umbi High School start in year 7 in a middle school approach to high school with limited movements and home teachers. Middle schooling is based on current educational research and reflects best educational practice. The school is currently the only secondary school part of the Priority Schools Funding Program in the Central Coast District and this reflects the diverse economic area from which we draw students.
