Mount Waverley Secondary College is a high demand state secondary co-educational college with approximately 1900 students across two campuses located in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. The core purpose of our college is to provide a high-quality education that develops each student's potential to shape their future and contribute positively to their community. Our college is noted for the consistent academic success of its students and the dedication of our staff. Its outstanding reputation has been established through a commitment to teaching high quality academic programs, setting high expectations of students and staff, developing traditional values, instilling self-discipline, encouraging leadership and community values, and nurturing the individual.

The Junior Campus (Years 7 and 8) caters for students in their first two years of secondary schooling, allowing both development and consolidation of essential learning through a unique teaching and learning approach that is designed to differentiate for students' specific learning and developmental needs. The Senior Campus caters for Years 9 to 12 and offers opportunities for students to explore greater choices in a broad academic and co-curricular program that ultimately leads to the Victorian Senior Secondary Certificate, further education and other pathways.

Our college's extensive curriculum provides a wide range of opportunities for acceleration, enrichment, and extension.



The co-curricular activities offer outstanding opportunities in instrumental music, the performing arts, study tours and student exchanges to Japan and Germany and student leadership, sport, camps and activities and community service. Our award-winning Wellbeing program has been recognised as exemplary both statewide and nationally. There is a genuine focus on student wellbeing, leadership and student voice and agency across the college, as we aim to develop independent, resilient, creative and positive individuals.
