Department of Education - Victoria

If you’re keen to explore a broad range of Teaching opportunities, then there’s no better place to start your career.

Location Profile

Rosebud Secondary College is located on the southern end of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, where local employment is largely centred around retail, trades, hospitality, tourism, and a growing range of agricultural industries. The College’s purpose is to learn together in a safe and respectful community, encourage self-awareness, resilience, and personal best, and prepare each student for their future pathway. Guided by its motto, Mens Conscia Recti — “Minds Conscious of Right, Do the Right Thing” — the College promotes the values of Respect, Personal Best, Belonging, and Responsibility to support all students in achieving their potential.

With approximately 1000 students across Years 7 to 12, the College has a long-standing reputation for providing outstanding educational and co-curricular opportunities that foster strong social cohesion, high academic achievement, and success for a diverse range of learners. Its significant physical, financial, and human resources support a broad range of educational, sporting, creative, and cultural programs designed to enhance learning and personalise education for each student. Around 30% of families qualify for CSEF, and while the community reflects considerable economic diversity, most students come from English-speaking backgrounds. The College values staff who contribute to innovative programs and structures that strengthen student learning outcomes, with a current emphasis on teachers’ understanding of cognitive science and students as learners. Rosebud Secondary College also strongly believes that fostering healthy, positive students is fundamental to achieving strong academic outcomes.
