**Location Profile**:
John Fawkner College takes pride in uniting learners from a diverse community within a respectful and adaptive environment that fosters enjoyment in learning and the motivation to achieve excellence. John Fawkner Secondary College is a growing co-educational secondary college, which operates within a distinct geographical area with a diverse cultural mix.

In 2024, JFC will see two significant changes which highlight the way forward. Firstly, a large part of the school will be demolished to make way for two new buildings: a new Science/STEAM, Arts and Media, and technology wing, which will also house staff members, and a new VET Hospitality grade kitchen classroom and canteen. There will also be significant landscaping within this development.

The second major change for 2024 is the partnership with Melbourne Victory Soccer Club, who will roll out the first pilot team by the second half of the year. Over coming years, the program will grow progressively, opening up to students from across the district.

The school is in a transform stage and is currently experiencing significant change and improvement, across curriculum, learning, and wellbeing. The School Strategic Plan has a strong focus on improving learning through the use of our well documented and viable curriculum and the JFC Instructional Model. Student wellbeing and engagement is supported by the SWPBS framework, and this is reflected in the school values. Each year from 7-10 has a coordinator, supported by a Sub School Leader. VCE and VM students are supported by a Year 11 coordinator and a Senior School Leader.

The college has a strong focus on improving Literacy and Numeracy, and students are identified for support through the Quicksmart program, MYLNS, and the tutor learning initiative. The funded PSD students are supported in the classroom by integration aides and a PSD coordinator. The college boasts a strong wellbeing team, consisting of a full time wellbeing leader, a school nurse, art therapist, and mental health practitioner. Our growing areas currently are in Outdoor Ed, Bike Ed, and PE across all levels as sport is a sought after career pathway for many students.

The staff at JFC is collegiate and collaborative, led by an executive principal and two assistant principals. The focus is on the future for the students in this area and we seek vibrant, innovative, committed teachers and leaders to join us in our journey of improvement and success. Tours are welcome from prospective employees.
