Parkville College is a registered specialist school that delivers high-quality educational programs to meet the needs of young people aged 10-21 years in custody with the Department of Justice and Community Safety and secure services with the Department of Families, Fairness and Housing.

Parkville College delivers education to some of Victoria's most vulnerable, yet inspiring young people, who are filled with enormous potential. The Parkville College education model follows a culturally responsive pedagogy that supports the development and growth of all students, incorporates strong local partnerships to deliver a versatile range of educational options including the Victorian Curriculum (Foundation-10), Senior Secondary Certificates (VCE, VM and VPC) and vocational studies.

The Secure Care Campus of Parkville College aims to provide a positive experience of education in a culturally safe and therapeutic learning environment. We assess individual student learning needs, provide opportunities for students to engage with education in a way that respond to their needs and interests, and develop purposeful Student Reports that we share with key educational stakeholders.
