Select entry schools: additional provision for girls

Planning

About the project

​Funding has been announced to review long-term select entry provision for girls across Victoria. This review will include options for creating more capacity at Mac Robertson Girl's High School.

The Government is reviewing select entry schooling to ensure girls and boys have equal access to select entry schools.

The funding will review long-term select entry provision for girls across Victoria as well as look at options for creating more capacity at Mac Robertson Girls’ High School to address the disparity.

Options to expand Mac Robertson Girls’ High School include increasing capacity on the current site and leasing or buying a new site. The review will not look at expanding the current site adjacent to Albert Park to ensure the surrounding parkland is not affected.​​

Funding

In the 2018–19 State Budget, $500,000 was allocated to planning funding for additional provision for girls in select entry schools.
