Clyde Secondary College

What Clyde Secondary College does

Clyde Secondary College is a Victorian government secondary school located at 21 Fernlea Homestead Road, Clyde 3978, serving families in Melbourne's outer south east within the City of Casey. The college opened in January 2022 with a Year 7 intake on February 1, 2022, and now delivers across Years 7 to 11 under the oversight of the Victorian Department of Education and Training, with school council governance mandated by Ministerial Order 1280, the Education and Training Reform Regulations 2017, and the Education and Training Reform Act 2006. Its core product is a Victorian Curriculum F-10 aligned secondary education program built on the REACH values framework (Respect, Excellence, Aspiration, Curiosity, Honesty) and the motto "Excelling together, valuing the individual." Differentiated offerings include the High Achievers select-entry program, a compulsory STEM program covering coding and robotics, a student-choice language program, and a Student Voice, Agency & Leadership program with structured roles (College Captains, House Captains, Eagle Captains, SRC).

The college's technology stack is built on Google Workspace for Teaching and Learning (Google Docs, Sheets, Classroom as the core delivery platform), Education Perfect for language learning, the Compass Education parent/student portal for attendance, grades, and communication, Cisco WebEx for parent-meet events, and a BYOD laptop program with device procurement consolidated through authorised Department of Education supplier Edunet under minimum specifications of Windows 11 or macOS 14, Intel i3 Gen 8, 8GB RAM, and Wi-Fi 6 compliance. Supporting operational channels include two dedicated school bus routes operated by Cranbourne Transit on behalf of the Department of Transport and Planning (Route 15 Tooradin and Route 16 Clyde North, paid via myki), uniform supply through Noone Imagewear with online click-and-collect, an on-campus canteen, booklists via Sustainable School Shop, and annual parent payments structured by year level for Years 7-11.

The school's go-to-market is community-led and zone-restricted: enrolments are guaranteed for permanent residents within the findmyschool.vic.gov.au-defined catchment, school tours run weekly on Tuesdays at 3:30pm, and the school markets itself through its website, Facebook and Instagram social channels, monthly newsletters, and annual community events including Harmony Week and NAIDOC Week. Education is free and publicly funded; the school collects parent payments for curriculum contributions, elective subjects, uniforms, booklists, and BYOD devices, plus canteen transactions. In December 2025, the college's first VCE Unit 3 & 4 General Mathematics cohort delivered the #1 ranking in Victoria for that subject, with a mean study score of 39.7 and 44.4% of results scoring 40 or above.
