Echuca College

What Echuca College does

Echuca College is a Victorian Government public secondary school operating from a single campus at 20-50 Butcher Street, Echuca, Victoria, Australia, delivering secondary education to students in Years 7 through 12. Its core offering is the standard Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) and VCE Vocational Major pathway, supplemented by a Victorian Pathways Certificate option, a VETiS-aligned vocational education and training program, and Australian School Based Apprenticeships. Vocational course delivery is executed entirely through partnerships with five Registered Training Organisations - COSAMP (music), Bendigo TAFE/Kangan Institute (retail cosmetics, salon assistant, allied health, building construction, construction pathways, electrotechnology, engineering), SAVILE (sport and recreation, community services), WISE Training Services (agriculture), and iVET (community services, cookery) - meaning the school does not directly provide vocational training content.

The school's technology stack is conventional school-IT rather than a proprietary platform: students operate within a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program supporting Windows 10/11 and MacOS devices, with three endorsed device suppliers (JB HiFi Education, Edunet, CentreCom). School management, parent communication, attendance, and academic progress are delivered through the Compass platform (with iOS and Android apps and a dedicated support channel), printing through PaperCut, and productivity through Microsoft Office 365. A Career Tools-powered Careers & Pathways portal provides course information, career quizzes, and appointment booking with a named coordinator.

Echuca College is funded primarily through Victorian Department of Education allocations rather than commercial revenue; specific revenue and headcount figures are not publicly disclosed. The school charges families annual curriculum contributions and optional payments, and booklists are fulfilled through Campion Education's online ordering system (school code A17476AF). Distribution is direct-to-student via on-site enrollment and a regional bus network that serves the town of Echuca, Moama, and surrounding country areas with subsidized travel for eligible students. The school acknowledges Yorta Yorta, Bangerang and Wollithica Country and is governed under the stated values of Respect, Resilience and Inclusion.
