Parkville College is a proud Victorian Government School for students who are in custody, a secure care setting, or transitioning from these settings.

Welcome to Parkville College

 

Parkville College is a specialist Victorian Government School that provides education to students who are, or have been, detained in custody, a secure care setting, or transitioning from these settings. Working in collaboration with the Department of Justice and Community Safety and the Department of Families, Fairness and Housing, we deliver education across four diverse campuses throughout Victoria.

Parkville College operates 52 weeks a year and caters to some of the most vulnerable students in the state.  Providing education to students with diverse learning goals, and abilities, Parkville College individually tailors education to the student to give them the greatest successes.

Students become enrolled if they are detained in a Youth Justice Centre or a Secure Care Service (SCS) within Victoria. While enrolment numbers fluctuate daily, the school typically provides education to around 300 students on any given day.

Under the Department of Education and Training’s Parent Payments Policy, Victorian government schools are required to provide transparent information to their school community on voluntary parent/carer contributions. Parkville College does not request any payments or contributions, and all services are provided at no cost to parents/carers.
