Year 7 To 8 English Classroom Teacher

Details of the offer

For over 30 years, Bellarine Secondary College (formerly Queenscliff High School) has served the community of the Bellarine Peninsula, and the past record of our students in academic, cultural, and sporting fields is noted with pride.
Bellarine Secondary College is the only State Secondary College on the Bellarine Peninsula. The College is situated on two campuses: Years 7 and 8 are located at Ocean Grove Campus in Shell Rd, Ocean Grove (500 students), and Years 9-12 are based at the Drysdale Campus, Peninsula Drive, Drysdale (850 students) with a total enrolment of 1350 students. The College draws enrolments from all towns on the Bellarine Peninsula including Drysdale, Clifton Springs, Portarlington, St Leonards, Indented Head, Queenscliff, Pt Lonsdale, Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads, and the outskirts of neighboring Leopold.
The College offers a rich and broad curriculum across all year levels. This curriculum includes VCE, VET, and VCAL in the later years of schooling. The intent of schooling at Bellarine Secondary College is to make available for students a wide range of opportunities, providing them with the necessary preparation for the transition from school to broader society. The College has established connections with tertiary providers within Geelong and continues to develop partnerships with other Registered Training Organisations. Applied learning is an important aspect of College curriculum and is built into student learning programs from Years 9 to 12. Bellarine Secondary College was one of the first schools across the State to offer a VCAL program, which is now embedded in the school and recognized as best practice across the State. The College offers 23 VCE studies at both Units 1 and 3 levels. The Accelerated Learning Program provides a fabulous opportunity for students to accelerate and deepen their learning in Years 7-9, with students from this program typically accessing VCE subjects in Year 10, allowing them to remain challenged and stimulated in their learning. The College is proud of the breadth of the program offered and of the excellent outcomes achieved by students over its history of serving its community.
The Year 7 & 8 campus at Ocean Grove presents a unique opportunity for students to transition from primary to secondary education smoothly. Parents speak passionately about the benefits of this structure.
Student wellbeing is given a very high priority within the College, and students and parents are encouraged to make maximum use of the support available. The College has a Student Engagement Policy which incorporates Restorative Behaviour practices College-wide. Bellarine Secondary College is a partner school in the Respectful Relationships Program, and embedding School Wide Positive Behaviour supports is a priority.
Student leadership and voice are highly valued within the College community, and students have a structured and strategically developed program available to them from Years 7 to 12.
