Balwyn High School is a state-run high school (years 7–12) in the Melbourne suburb of North Balwyn, in Victoria, Australia. It was established in 1954. As of December 2024, it had 2184 students, making it among the largest secondary schools in Victoria. The school is consistently ranked among the highest achieving non-selective government schools. Since 2009, the school has been led by Principal Deborah Harman.
The postwar student population expanded. The school assembly hall was built with assistance from parents and is named after a former principal, Archibald M. Rogers. With the large class sizes of that era, the school developed a science education at senior levels that saw graduates pass into senior academic, government and private sector positions.
The school buildings were rebuilt in 1994 after merging with Greythorn High School. Since 1996, the school has housed international students as a part of their international student program.
