Senior College

Senior College may be a good fit for students who:

• Want to complete their senior secondary education while building a clear pathway to further study, training or employment.
• Are interested in learning that connects senior subjects with industry, further education and real-world opportunities.
• Want access to pathways aligned with industries experiencing strong employment growth and future workforce demand.
• Value opportunities to build industry connections and gain greater understanding of the skills, qualifications and experiences employers are looking for.
• Are considering university, TAFE, apprenticeships, traineeships or direct employment and want support to make informed pathway choices.
• Are ready to take greater responsibility for their learning while maintaining high expectations for attendance, engagement and achievement.
• Want a supportive senior secondary environment that prepares them for the expectations of further study, training and the workplace.

Senior College is designed as a purposeful two-year journey that combines senior secondary studies with pathway exploration, industry experiences and future planning. Students attend four structured learning days each week, with Fridays dedicated to Pathway Day activities that connect learning to future opportunities.

Year 11: Explore

Students build strong learning foundations, develop confidence and discover potential pathways through work experience and industry tasters. The focus is on identifying strengths, exploring interests and establishing positive learning routines.

Year 12: Launch

Students continue their senior studies while deepening their pathway experience through certificate training, industry engagement and transition planning. The focus shifts to preparing for further study, an apprenticeship, traineeship or employment after graduation.

As part of the enrolment process, students and families participate in an enrolment interview to discuss strengths, interests, pathway aspirations and subject options. This helps ensure each student's program supports their individual learning needs and post-school goals.  Enquire below to arrange an interview.
