VILLAGE NATION COLLEGE
GRADES 7-12
Village Nation College
Village Nation College was created to provide a specialised alternative schooling pathway for students who are gifted and dedicated to the performing arts. Our program offers a balanced and structured approach, allowing students to accelerate their artistic development while continuing to achieve strong academic outcomes.
Education is our first priority. We believe a solid academic foundation is essential for long-term success in the performing arts and beyond. Our model ensures students are supported both academically and creatively, without compromise.
This pathway gives our elite students access to the highest calibre of performing arts training, working with the same industry-leading faculty as our Full-Time Certificate IV and Diploma students. Students in Years 11 and 12 also have the opportunity to complete their Certificate IV qualification alongside their senior schooling, creating a seamless transition into professional pathways.
