Curriculum.

The Victorian Curriculum.

The Victorian Curriculum sets out a single, coherent and comprehensive set of content descriptions and associated achievement standards to enable teachers to plan, monitor, assess and report on the learning achievement of every student. The Victorian Curriculum incorporates and reflects much of the Australian Curriculum, but differs in some important respects, most notably the representation of the curriculum as a continuum of learning and the structural design. Richmond High School will provide all students with a planned and structured curriculum based on the Victorian Curriculum to equip them with the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to complete their schooling and to make a successful transition from school to work, training or further education.

The school has some unique offerings including:

• An Enhanced Chinese Language Program.
• The Projects – an innovative learning focus in year 9 that includes The Entrepreneur Project.
• A Science Technology, Engineering and Mathematics program coordinated through the Innovation Program, carefully taking an ‘exploring and making’ approach.
• A commitment to Bring Your Own Device, blind to platform and based on the use of technology in a natural and seamless way, with Cloud and online programs driving the collaborative nature of students’ work.
• ‘The Neighbourhood’ where students can continue their learning outside of school.
• Google classrooms and environment central to this collaboration.
• The use of Compass Education for our key communication with our community to set up a true two-way dialogue.

Our focus with our students – To Learn, To Evolve, To Grow.

A systematic curriculum planning process has been developed by the school which allows us to make decisions about the range of learning experiences offered to our students. View our full curriculum below.
