Savile Learning

What Savile Learning does

Savile Learning, operating as Savile RTO (RTO #45452), is a Melbourne-based Registered Training Organisation and trading name of Oxford Training Academy. The company is owned and operated by two ex-secondary school teachers, Leigh Saliba and Josh Miller, who together hold over two decades of VCE/VET teaching experience. Savile specializes exclusively in delivering the VCE/VET Sport, Aquatics and Recreation qualification (SIS30122) to schools across the Government, Catholic, and Independent sectors, primarily in Victoria with growing reach into Western Australia. Its product portfolio centers on scored assessment content (Student Assessment Folios, practice exams, exam seminars, and revision activities) authored in-house and delivered through the Cloud Assessment Portal, the 521-question UOC Revision Activities tool, and a Bite-Sized Revision Chunks flashcard system.

The underlying technology stack is a proprietary web-based learning management and assessment portal (Cloud Assess) combined with authored static-content study tools — there are no disclosed AI or adaptive learning capabilities. The company bundles content, assessment materials, and trainer resources so that schools do not need their own RTO to deliver the VET qualification, lowering compliance and content development overhead for partner schools.

Savile makes money through three primary streams: (1) annual subscription-style school partnerships where it serves as the school's RTO for VCE/VET Sport and Recreation (with free materials access contingent on declaration of intent); (2) one-time fees for teacher professional development courses including TAESS00019 Assessor Skill Set at A$1,495 per teacher and TAE40122 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment at A$2,950-A$3,495 per teacher; and (3) ancillary First Aid/CPR training bookings and non-accredited e-learning series. Distribution is sales-led and direct, with face-to-face training at the Footscray HQ, on-site delivery for groups of 10+, and online live Zoom cohorts. The business is operating, privately held, founder-led, with no disclosed external funding or M&A activity.
