We are eSmart

Our school is proud to announce we are officially an eSmart school. 

At Victoria University Secondary College, we are dedicated to supporting our students and families. We need to ensure we are providing safe and supportive learning environments, free from bullying, harassment and violence.

We have a number of programs and initiatives in place at Victoria University Secondary College that counter bullying. In 2017 VUSC became an accredited eSmart school. eSmart, an initiative of the Alannah & Madeline Foundation, helps teachers to best manage cyber risks, bullying and cyber bullying issues and incidents so that students will feel safer and supported at school.

This is a framework that sits across the entire school – teachers, students, parents and the school community – and it is embedded into the school through our curriculum implementation, our leadership development and practice, our technology systems and our wellbeing programs.

Please visit the  Bullying. No Way! website (www.bullyingnoway.gov.au) for practical advice and information to help students, parents, teachers and other members of the school community to work together against bullying.

We feel confident our students, staff and the wider school community are well supported to be smart, safe and responsible users of digital technology.

We encourage everyone in the school community to continue to uphold and promote eSmart behaviours, at school and at home. If you are aware of any incidents of bullying, cyber bullying or risky online behaviour, please contact the Principal or our eSmart coordinator.
