Department of Education - Victoria

Located one hour from Melbourne and a short walk from the Seymour train station, we are dedicated to create an
inclusive environment across the three sectors of education, primary, secondary and special education. With access
to modern facilities, we offer teachers the space and opportunity to create exciting teaching and learning
experiences for their students. All of our teachers, from early career graduates through to Leading Teachers, are
provided with support and opportunities to grow and progress in their teaching careers, with access to leadership
opportunities, mentoring and coaching.

At Seymour College, we encourage collaboration with the students, as well as their parents and carers throughout
their learning. As part of our commitment to life-long learning, we have implemented the new Vocational Major and
Vocational Pathway Certificate and offer comprehensive careers and pathways planning for all students. Our
commitment to student success is reflected in our NAPLAN data, which shows significant student learning growth
from Years 3 to Year 9. This carries on into VCE, with our VCE outcomes sitting above many schools in our area.
The College prides itself on being a hub for the Seymour community in our education and wellbeing services from
birth through to graduation. This includes a co-located Family and Children's Centre with kindergarten and maternal
and child health services on site. The college is also involved in a ten-year partnership with the Colman Education
Foundation, Kids First Australia, Mitchell Shire Council, Department of Family, Fairness and Housing to implement
the `Our Place' approach.
