Nossal High School – Berwick

Welcome to Nossal High School,

Victoria’s first fully academically selective coeducational Government High School, and one of only four academically selective high schools in the state. Nossal High School has been purpose designed to suit an adult, academically focused and highly aspirational cohort of students. The buildings are high tech. and ICT rich, mirroring features and approaches usually found in universities. Our location and partnership with Monash University and Chisholm Institute offer our community access to programs and facilities at both secondary and tertiary levels and enables the development of rich links and challenging opportunities.

We offer a broad range of curricula and co-curricula experiences and programs, strongly influenced by the students themselves who have an active and authentic voice in the running of the school. While still in the early stages of our development, we offer significant Sporting, Creative, Performing, Musical, Community, Cultural, Social, and Leadership opportunities to our students alongside a comprehensive academic study program.

Teaching staff at Nossal are selected as they are outstanding educators and they too undertake ongoing and rigorous professional development to ensure they provide the best possible learning environment and outcomes for our students. For our students they model and exemplify the Monash motto – “I am still learning.”

It is my great privilege to be the foundation Principal of this unique new school and I invite you to further explore and experience the innovative, student centered, and high performing 21st century adult learning environment that is Nossal High School.

Visitors are welcome and school tours and information evenings are available throughout the year – particularly in the lead up to the entry exams in June. Our best ambassadors are our students who share their experiences and perceptions of our school with their guests.
