SHEPPARTON ACE Secondary College and its students have demonstrated exceptional resilience and good spirit given a challenging 2021 school year.
It was established 15 years ago to meet a community need to re-engage young people who had fallen out of their education and wanted to return to study years 11 and 12. Shepparton ACE Secondary College now has students from years 7-12, as well as further education.
The school continues to enhance its reputation as a place where students can achieve to their potential as learners and citizens. It continues to successfully provide a safe, supportive small class environment with relevant, progressive curriculum and extra curricula activities.
The 2021 school year saw the College move into new state of the art buildings at 123 –129 Maude Street, Shepparton (on the corner of Nixon Street).
The College focus is on small class size (15 max) that offers students greater interaction with their teachers and the ability to engage in a learning process that gives students an understanding of why they need to learn.
From taking classes into the field, to working with the latest teaching aids give students an appreciation of what is achievable and why it might be pursued.
The majority of their staff have many decades of experience working with young people who have experienced a few hiccups in their education or in their personal life. Their experience, combined with the varied approaches of new staff are invaluable, not only in curriculum experience but in creating a steady, positive, success focused school environment.
At Shepparton ACE Secondary College, student learning cannot be separated from welfare. Students develop best when teaching and learning occur in a context of student welfare which is enhanced when all members of the school community participate in the learning programs and the life of the school.
