Location ProfileOur way of doing things at GSSC The saying goes at Greater Shepparton Secondary College (GSSC) that we are Greater Together!
That is our families, staff and community all working together to support our young people, and our students leaning on these support networks to achieve their best.
Although we are a big school able to cater for more than 2,200 students, we have been able to retain a 'small school' atmosphere through our House and Neighbourhood structure.
This provides students an opportunity to build relationships with key neighbourhood staff, as well as with their peers through our Vertical Home Groups.
Building relationships and nurturing a student-centred culture is at the forefront of everything that we do here at GSSC.

GSSC Wellbeing Officers are also based in each neighbourhood to support students on a day-to-day basis.
This team around the learner is further strengthened by our Ngarri Ngarri team, made by of six staff and a Team Leader who work across neighbourhoods to support First Nations students and their families.
