Officer Secondary College

Creating connected learning communities.

Located in a rapidly developing outer suburb in Melbourne’s south east, Officer Secondary College is designed to build strong community connections, and provide technology enabled, differentiated learning environments that support personalised, student-centred learning.

Six learning communities provide a diversity of spaces that will support different modes of learning. Large collaborative spaces can accommodate up to 50 students, and are connected to informal, social and creative learning areas.

“Exceptional master planning of the Officer Secondary College supports the approach of strong community connections through display of multiple entries and articulated forms generating a series of ‘connected communities’.” - Jury Citation, A4LE Australasia Region Educational Facilities Awards

A multi-purpose community hub includes an indoor stadium, a performing arts space, and kitchen with barista facilities which were designed to be utilised by the College and Specialist School during class hours, and opened for community use on afternoons and weekends.
