If you are looking at primary school, then Quakers Hill Public School has been the highest rated school only next to Baulkhum Hills Matthew Pearson, Girraween and Westmead Public School. Check out primary school ratings at bettereducation.com.au. If you are talking about high school, then I have received good feedback for Quakers Hill High school, but I don't have the same feedback for other primary schools in Quakers Hill.
Quakers Hill Public School has been the best primary school in Quakers Hill for more than three decades. It' s also conducting opportunity classes for quite a long time (the best brains of Quakers Hill finally assimilate at QHPS.)
Quakers Hill Public School has been the Best school for more than 25 years. Also specific statistics as recognised by bettereducation can be found here:

Primary schools private or public are pretty much equal,
Quakers Hill High School is a normal public school, no matter what school your kids go to, its up to the individual child to who they hang around and socialize with because most public schools have there group of good kids and troublesome kids, so checking who their friends are , is probably more important, school wise good school , good teachers.
No Emma B? Did you know students in the QHHS support unit are allowed to finish school if they want to after yr 10 if they are proven to be 17 otherwise if under 17 they cannot do it until 18 usually but however with permission they may finish school or move to another high school that isnt part of the group at 16
Although it is up to the person if they want to leave or stay for another 2 years if Autistic or has a disability.
Emma B you got it all wrong about students having no choice but to deal with it
Qhhs is the worst school , try riverstone or glenwood ,stay away
Quakers Hill High School is open for years 7-10 only. Afterwards they must go to the senior school which takes students from other areas. I am a high school teacher and I don't like this structure because it disrupts students education and many students may not ever make the transition to senior school. The school itself is good and if you like that idea go for it. Terra Sancta is good as is William Clarke (Kellyville). There is a new public k-12 high school opening up in The Ponds in 2015.
I went to the senior school Wyndham College after coming from a private school (RHAC) and preferred tremendously being treated like an adult at Wyndham. There wasnt a disruption to my education, I believe I was set up better for my HSC with more subject choice, focused teachers and students, a good mingling of students which set me up for success when I went to Uni. There are ratbags everywhere but if youve got your head screwed on you know how to stay out of it and if you cant learn that at school where are you going to learn it?
Primary or High? All the primarys are OK. Had a lot of problems at Quakers Hill High but that was 10 yrs ago. Terra Sanctas Ok but only if ur kids are VERY sporty, otherwise no. Seven Hills High was very good.

my daughter actually DID attend teh schools mentioned above. Moving to the senior school was a great idea as the school concentrates on getting those kids their HSC and is not hampered by the problems of teh yrs 7-10 kids. She did very very well and is not really an academic student at all.
