At Mount Eliza Secondary College (MESC) a collaborative and personalised approach supports students and staff as active learners. We work to empower students to be their best by questioning their experiences, expressing themselves with confidence and participating in local, national, and global communities. We are committed to safety and wellbeing for all young people, and this is the primary focus of our care and decision making. Our college values, Educated for excellence - Prepared for life, underpin all we do. There is a wide array of VCE subjects including Vocational Major to choose from and electives in Year 9 & 10. Located in the Shire of Mornington, Mount Eliza Secondary is a medium sized secondary college that provides for students from over 15 feeder primary schools, including a large number from the local Central Peninsula Network (CPN) The current school enrolment is 800 students enabling a guaranteed and viable curriculum, notwithstanding a rich array of extra-curricular programs and activities, including in the areas of Music, Performing Arts and Sport.

The College has long been known for its caring and dedicated approach to its students, the calibre of young people who attend, and the support of its parent community. These factors remain as strengths of the College as does our desire for continuous improvement, and a commitment to remain as one of the highest performing government colleges in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula areas.

The major focus for our work in recent years, and into the next Strategic Plan is around:

1.



Maximise the achievement and learning growth of all students:

Design and embed a curriculum and pedagogical approaches that explicitly develop Literacy and Numeracy skills, and that promote deep inquiry and authentic application of learning across all areas.

Build all teachers capability in using data to monitor students learning growth, to address their points of learning, and to offer differentiated learning challenge.

2. Maximise the wellbeing and engagement of all students.

Enhance student's agency through opportunities for real-world learning, improved feedback practices, and increased choice in their learning.

Embed a whole-school approach, with tiered and responsive practices, that supports all students wellbeing and engagement in school.

We continue to address an approach as a whole college to focus on accountability and consistency, and a genuine belief in meeting the needs of our students. Managing increasing enrolments continues to be a priority that we are happy to have. To manage and promote calm and a restorative learning workplace growth in student numbers, we have employed additional staff to support the wellbeing and behaviour of our young people.

At Mount Eliza Secondary College, we believe that we have an obligation to our students. This informs our work on an ongoing basis and makes us confident that we can provide a learning environment of the highest quality.
