“Congratulations to the principal Gail Major, staff and Scoresby Secondary College community for the amazing transformation occurring at the school. On my recent visit I observed students highly engaged in their learning in an atmosphere which was calm, orderly and highly stimulating.
The changes occurring at Scoresby Secondary College reflect a genuine commitment to the government’s vision for excellence in education. I look forward to supporting the school as it continues to grow and prosper as a centre of learning excellence for all students.”

“I was extremely impressed by the way in which your students approached the PISA tests, with concentration and focus. As a former teacher with some 35 years experience I was also impressed by the garden plantings with little or no litter and the calm and purposeful way in which students moved about the school, this could be a positive lesson for other schools.”

“It was an absolute pleasure working with the Year 7, 8 and 9 students from Scoresby Secondary College. The students were attentive, responsive and engaged. It was a treat to work with such well-mannered groups of students and I was really quite impressed with the quality of their ideas and their willingness to engage with the ideas presented. I was also impressed with the way they listened, collaborated and supported each other. I’d be delighted to return anytime!”

“In my time at Scoresby I really enjoyed the sense of community that exists between the different parts of the school… removing the borders between year levels in a way that encourages students of all year levels to interact with and learn from each other… The staff are supportive of us as individuals as well as students”
