Elevation Secondary College

We built a new secondary school for Craigieburn.

​​​Elevation Secondary College is a supported inclusion school. This means the school has been designed to support a higher number of students with a disability than a typical mainstream school. Included across the school are facilities that provide additional support, so that all students have access to the same learning and play.  

We built the school in multiple stages. The first stage included a building for specialist subjects (chemistry), a learning community (classrooms), administration building and hard courts. 

Enrolments opened for Year 7 in 2020, increasing by year level in each consecutive year. Visit the school's website for more information on their enrolment policy.

This project, designed by Billard Leece Partnership, was a finalist for ‘Best School Project Above $10 million’ in the 2020 Victorian School Design Awards.

School name

Elevation Secondary College was originally known by the interim name of Craigieburn South Secondary School while it was being planned and built.

The new name reflects its location on Elevation Boulevard, Craigieburn.

The Department of Education chose this name after consulting with local communities on the names for all schools opening in 2020. To reach a final decision, the Department considered this community feedback along with the guiding principles for naming a new school.

Possible names for all the new schools were initially shortlisted by school advisory groups, who considered factors such as public interest, relevance to the local area, and local First Nations languages. The names were also chosen to help reflect each school's unique identity, inspire local pride and make them easily locatable.

We built the final stage of Elevation Secondary College, which allows the school to enrol more local students and offer them broader learning facilities.

We added new learning neighbourhoods, a gymnasium and performing arts building, more sports hard courts and completed landscaping.
