Hampton East School provides a caring and friendly environment, which is safe, calm, orderly and positive, allowing our students to thrive. Our enrolments are drawn from a range of local special, mainstream primary and secondary schools in the Bayside and SAGE Networks. Our current enrolment is 137 students across two sites with approximately 45 staff, inclusive of teachers and education support staff.
Our whole school Teaching and Learning Model identifies key strategies to improve student learning outcomes in literacy and numeracy. Our model provides teachers with a well-researched structure that supports the implementation of the Victorian Curriculum. It is specifically designed to meet the needs of all students. The Victorian Curriculum (F-Year 10) is used throughout the school. Teachers create an individual educational learning plan for every student to provide an individualised, positive learning experience that includes the student's strengths and interests.
The Senior Classes focus on a broad range of programs aligned to the Victorian Curriculum for students in Years 7-10 along with the Victorian Pathways Certificate in Year 11 and 12. Students engage in the VPC through applied learning that provides flexibility to meet individual learning needs. The VPC curriculum develops the skills, knowledge, values, and capabilities that enable students to make informed choices about pathways into further education, training and/or employment.
