Year 12 VCE and VCAL students from Lalor Secondary College have excelled in their final exams.

College principal Timothy Cottrell said the entire learning community at the school is proud of every student.

“With our increased study scores over 90 (Dux over 95), and also over 80, and a very high completion rate, our entire learning community is so proud of every last student,” he said.

Mr Cottrell said the college is no ordinary learning environment.

“Our school has emerged as a highly innovative alternative to the mainstream focussed relentlessly upon the special needs of every individual and their ability to flourish in learning, wellbeing, and community. We are uncompromising in pursuit of this goal that permeates all our activities and programs,” he said.

“A stimulating, intimate, and inclusive setting, committed to small student teacher-ratios, we are passionate about academic rigour, positive student outcomes and confident self-image for every young person.

“Our young people come to us as children and we wave them off as young adults who continue to create their future. We take this awesome privilege very seriously indeed.”

Mr Cottrell said secondary education is an important part of a young persons life.

“Secondary education is an adventure that should flow seamlessly from the primary years providing excitement, growth, and joy into adolescence and beyond,” he said.

“Therefore, positive student engagement, careful guidance, and genuine, authentic human relationships in learning is our priority.

“Our families are our partners and we join with [them] closely throughout [their] child’s learning experience. So congratulations to our families on their support for their students through their partnership with the College.”
