Education
Revolution
in the West
Residents at Dacland communities in the west will have access to a
smorgasbord of education opportunities across all ages and stages of
life. Dacland’s philosophy of ensuring access to key amenities means
its communities are located close to a range of educational facilities,
among other life essentials.
It wasn’t too long ago that not a
single secondary school existed in
Wyndham, and barely a handful of
primary schools could be found; but
with the area’s exponential growth,
education is now a real focus for
the region.
Today, the Wyndham area
boasts about 50 primary and
secondary schools, and over 100
kindergartens, childcare and early
childhood centres ensure that
pre-schoolers are also catered for.
To continue meeting the demands
of the growing population, the
Victorian Government earlier this
year earmarked $287 million for
23 new schools across the state,
many in Melbourne’s growth areas
including Tarneit West.
Victoria University’s Executive
Director of Marketing and
External Relations, Dr Rob Brown,
believes the west is one to watch
in terms education leadership.
The University has consolidated
its presence in recent years onto a
number of major campuses in order
to enrich the student experience.
Dr Brown says the University is
most definitely staying put in the
west, with exciting plans for its
Werribee Campus to help facilitate
the huge growth over the
coming decade.
“There is enormous potential
to deliver first class education
institutions in an area that will
grow both in population and
developing its own communities,
networks, job opportunities and
economic growth,” he said.
The University recently revealed
plans for the Werribee Campus
to broaden its current Victoria
Polytechnic TAFE offering and
research activities to become
home to one of the Victorian
Government’s 10 new Tech Schools.
Wyndham Tech School, expected
to be operational during 2018,
will be a high-tech hub where
every year 14,000 students from
surrounding schools will extend
their school studies in STEM
(science, technology, engineering
and maths).
The state government has
committed $128 million to establish
these centres of education and
training excellence that will equip
students with knowledge and skills
to augment their future job and
life opportunities.
Wyndham Vale Community
Learning Centre provides activities
and space hire for community
groups and organisations, and
actively invites ideas for new
programs to share skills of benefit
to the community.
Wyndham Community and
Education Centre is another
organisation that’s been providing
adult educational programs and
community services for over
40 years. It promotes lifelong
learning for people of all ages,
with particular emphasis on
disadvantaged, youth, culturally
and linguistically diverse, refugee
and humanitarian entrants,
and new and emerging
communities.
