A Christian Co-educational International School

Our Principal

Phil De Young

Phil De Young, B.Ec, B.Ed, Grad Dip FP,
has been Principal of Carey since January 2002.

‘A Carey education is a partnership between parents, students and the School staff. Carey will be the right school for you if you feel confident all the partners can communicate effectively and if the school environment is one in which children will be happy.’

Phil De Young came to Carey in 2002, bringing to the School extensive experience in education at Mentone Grammar, at his own old school, Wesley College where he was Head of Senior School, Prahran, and as Deputy Principal and Head of Campus at Caulfield Grammar’s Caulfield campus.

Immediately prior to taking up the appointment as Carey’s Principal, Phil was working in the financial services industry, and his sound understanding of financial management in schools has proved to be an additional asset in his leadership of the Carey community.
