Department of Education Victoria – Point Cook VIC

14h ago , from Department of Education & Training Victoria

Homestead Senior Secondary College opened in 2020 and is located in a developing area of Point Cook, approximately 28 kilometres from Melbourne CBD. Our feeder schools are the local P-9 colleges - Alamanda and Saltwater P-9 Colleges. A significant percentage of our enrolments are new arrivals to the greater Point Cook community. Homestead also attracts a growing number of enrolments from the independent school's sector. Rapid growth is predicted for both the suburb and school over the next 5 to 10 years.

In 2027 we expect approximately 900 students at HSSC, and it is projected that the college's peak enrolment will be in excess of 1500 students. In addition to this, we expect to be supporting Saltwater P-9 at years 7-9 on the Homestead site while Saltwater undergoes major capital works to increase capacity on their site.

The foundation years of the college focused upon building social capital, creating structures and practices, purchasing resources and establishing staff professional learning teams. This is an amazing career opportunity for educationalists as they are part of a staff cohort playing an integral role in the development of the college's culture, teaching & learning style and place in our community. Our new phase includes solidifying our culture of the young adult learning workplace and our consistent teaching and learning model, while managing significant growth in student and staff population.

HSSC is a state of the art 21st Century learning environment for young adults. With a build cost of $53 million, and a new build of 21.6m in the next three years,



facilities are second to none. Students learn in a three-storey main building, a standalone Performing Arts/Physical Education building, multi-purpose courts and a playing field. Our landscaped grounds feature amazing spaces for our students and staff.

The college curriculum focuses on providing the right pathway for all students to achieve their academic goals. The college offers a broad range of studies at Year 10, VCE, VCE VM, VET & other programs.
