CURRICULUM

SEAL PROGRAM

The Select Entry Accelerated Learning (SEAL) program at Bass Coast College supports high achieving, motivated students through accelerated study in English and Mathematics. The program operates across Years 7-9 at both Dudley and San Remo Campuses, allowing students to move through aspects of the curriculum at a faster pace while completing the standard secondary program. This program is aimed at students who value their academic studies and wish to challenge themselves.

The aims of our program are:

  • To provide education of a high quality supporting high achieving students to maintain and extend their academic excellence
  • To provide a caring context which recognises and responds to the specific needs of high achievers
  • To nurture healthy competition among very able students, maximising their intellectual and other potentials

In years 7-8, SEAL remain in their home group classes. They complete accelerated extended English and Mathematics, and Electives are completed within their home class group. In year 9, SEAL students continue accelerated work in core subjects, while Elective classes are mixed with students from other classes.
