Primary Purpose
MLC teachers are responsible for creating and maintaining effective learning environments
which supports the learning needs of the students.

MLC teachers are organised, structured, enthusiastic and passionate about the potential of
their students. They are life-long learners themselves who model excellent learning and who
develop positive professional relationships with their students and colleagues and skilfully
develop relevant, structured, learning opportunities with clear time-frames and deadlines,
where process as well as content is made explicit and where students are encouraged to
demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways and in a variety of settings.

‘Excellent teachers have the capacity to transform the lives of students and to inspire and
nurture their development as learners, individuals and citizens’ (Melbourne Declaration of
Educational Goals for Young Australians).

- (Years 11 and 12). Years 7 to 12 teachers are expected to teach across at least two schools. The
- Senior School program offers a comprehensive curriculum including the Victorian Certificate of
- Education (VCE), International Baccalaureate (IB) and Vocational Education and Training (VCE
VET). Teachers may be expected to teach across these programs.
- MLC teachers work in a learning community and are expected to establish and maintain
- positive relationships with staff and students. They are expected to be life-long learners and to
- participate in action research within collaborative practice groups.
- MLC teachers work in a technology rich environment and are expected to integrate a range of
- technologies in their practice to support student learning.
