At Sorell School, we put the learner first. We start with your interests and aspirations, then build a learning program tailored to your needs. Sorell School has been offering Year 11 and 12 courses since 2017. Our College offers a wide range of courses, specialist teachers and a purpose-built learning space, all within your local community. We specialise in smaller class sizes, individualised support, flexibility and strong relationships with families and the community.

Year 11 and 12 courses are held in the South East Trade Training Centre (SETTC) on the Sorell School Campus. This site was officially opened in 2015 and provides opportunities for students to learn in realistic, work based environments.

Testimonials

They focus on the individual.

Student Grade 10

They help me learn by giving me time to finish the activity and enjoy it more by finding the fun side to it. They help me feel safe by listening to me and my friends.

Student Grade 8

My favourite teacher helps me, he sits down and tells me over and over what to do and how to do it. If i need them all I do is ask for help. He helps me with issues around school and I can even talk to him about issues at home, so it makes me feel safe.

Student Grade 10

I…found it easy to find friends and get help when needed. My favourite subjects are Music, Art, English, Maths, Science, Hass, PE and Action Crew.

Student Grade 8

I like the different teachers and classrooms and that I have the opportunity to extend my work to higher grades.

Student Grade 8

We have lots of area to play, like basketball courts, netball courts, playground, oval, swings and lots of areas to hang out.

They are so supportive and great with communication. My youngest has a learning disability and she's really improved thanks to the support of the school.

Parent Prep & Grade 2

I have found that they teach my children strength, bravery, positive encouragement, kindness, coping skills, (and a) “you can do it” attitude.

Parent Prep & Grade 1

The teachers know our children and their different strengths and needs. Where they have needed help, they have helped, where they have needed to be extended, they have been extended.

Parent Kinder, Grade 1 & Grade 2

Teachers at Sorell care about our children. They have established learning routines such as home reading and literacy groups to improve their reading and writing.

Parent Grade 1 & Grade 4

They have been incredibly inclusive and actively accepting of my child identifying as non-binary.

Parent Grade 7

The Pioneer School and Farm are great assets to the school. The Kitchen Garden program is fantastic and I'm loving not having to make school lunches due to the Paddock to Plate program!

Parent Grade 2 & Grade 4

As soon as we walk onto the school grounds or pass them in the shops…there is always a smile and a welcoming feeling. The staff are approachable, children smiling and seeing the lovely work displayed the children have done is wonderful.

Parent Prep & Grade 2

Inclusive, Respectful, Genuine.
