**_WCB has a firm commitment to maximising the educational opportunities for each one of our students and we place a high emphasis on all students achieving personal excellence. Each student has a Ready to Learn plan where teachers and parents can track progress with their students to ensure that individual learning needs are met. Literacy and Numeracy are a high priority at Weeroona College Bendigo where we work to ensure that our teaching supports all students across the curriculum. We are a community of readers and encourage reading opportunities at school and at home and we have a differentiated learning model for teaching Mathematics that supports individual learners. All teachers at WCB explicitly teach literacy skills in each of their classes, with a focus on vocabulary and we are supported to do this by our brilliantly resourced Global Learning Centre (library)._**
**_Our college has made the development of a high-quality curriculum that caters for the needs of all students a major priority over the past few years. A balanced core curriculum is offered for year seven and eight students and year nine and ten students undertake a mixture of core and elective studies. Our year 10 students have access to VCE courses and our year 9/10¿s to VET programs._**
**_WCB has a strong culture of extracurricular programs. We have a proud tradition in the Performing and Visual Arts including a well-supported instrumental music program, bands and arts spectaculars and College productions. The College also has very high standard sporting programs, where our students compete as the Weeroona Warriors. We are proud of our students who perform exceptionally well in a broad range of interschool sports activities. Another highlight of our college program is our participation in the Energy Breakthrough competitions. The College has an outstanding record of success over many years and the students, staff and families involved have benefitted enormously from this program._**
**_We have developed a culture of high expectations for all our students and have embedded a Learning Protocol framework based on our school values: Kind, Safe, Learners. To support this, we have also developed a learning support plan that clearly articulates a consistent set of expectations by all staff using a restorative and trauma informed approach._**
