Curriculum at Carranballac College

At Carranballac College, our curriculum is designed to ensure every student is known, challenged and supported to achieve their potential. Our vision, We Connect, We Learn, We Thrive, guides the way we create inclusive learning environments, build strong relationships and support every student to experience success.

Across Foundation to Year 9, our curriculum is aligned with the Victorian Curriculum F–10 Version 2.0 and our teaching is informed by the Victorian Teaching and Learning Model 2.0 (VTLM 2.0). This evidence-informed approach places explicit teaching at the heart of effective learning and supports students to build knowledge, develop understanding and progressively take greater responsibility for their learning.

Our approach is strengthened through the implementation of Positive Classroom Management Strategies (PCMS), which support teachers to establish predictable, respectful and engaging classrooms where students understand expectations, develop positive learning behaviours and are supported to participate successfully in learning. Alongside PCMS, our Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) provides a structured approach to identifying and responding to students' individual learning and wellbeing needs, ensuring support is matched to need and provided as early as possible.

Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed across three stages of learning, with each stage building on the knowledge, skills, confidence and independence developed in the years before.
