Preparing people for the future with CORE values

Attending Eaglehawk Secondary College as a student is about more than learning mandated curriculum and content.

Eaglehawk Secondary College educators aim to create an environment that sets students up for success, to understand and develop resilience in learning.

At the heart of the school’s vision is the commitment to develop aspirant, resilient learners who are empowered global citizens.

The mission supports this vision, by committing to a nurturing learning atmosphere that not only recognises, but also connects with students’ diverse interests, needs and experiences.

Central to achieving the vision and mission are the college’s CORE values: community, opportunity, relationships, and expectations and achievement.

These values are not merely words, but pillars upon which educators aim to determine and build programs and strategies.

Community engagement is about helping students understand their role in the world, encouraging a sense of responsibility and active participation in their local community. Opportunity means every student finds a pathway that resonates with their personal ambitions and talents, making learning relevant and exciting.

Relationships are at the core of the college’s educational approach, creating a supportive network that includes teachers, peers, family and the broader community.

Finally, expectations and achievement drive students to set high standards, pushing themselves to achieve their full potential, whilst being provided with the necessary support to reach these goals.

By nurturing these values within a caring educational environment, Eaglehawk Secondary College aims to equip students not just to face the world, but to have the courage to change it.
