Located in a beautiful secure bushland setting, Braemar College provides a unique nurturing community in which your child can grow and flourish.
The College is founded on Christian principles and welcomes students regardless of their beliefs and encourages them to be critical, independent thinkers in their studies.
We have a proven history of academic success, and also offer vocational training opportunities, and extensive arts and sporting programs.
At Braemar we understand that learning is individual and that students develop at different rates and in different ways. So we focus on how young people learn and our programs are designed to meet the needs of different learning styles, talents and interests.
We foster an environment of tolerance and support, and we recognise and celebrate achievements while encouraging students to constantly seek out and explore new avenues of opportunity.
Braemar College strives to equip students with qualities and attributes that allow them to achieve their potential in the College environment and beyond. We aim to provide a positive, rewarding and enjoyable experience for every student.
Our College has a Senior Campus in Mount Macedon hosting students from Years 9-12 and Middle School Campus in Woodend hosting students from Years 5-8. |

Braemar College strives for outstanding and up-to-date teaching through the use of contemporary, engaging learning and teaching practices, including integrated digital media.
The College personalises learning for all our students, providing flexible and tailored programs for highly-able learners and those with special learning needs. Specialist staff work with teachers to develop and implement learning strategies.
At Braemar College, every student is valued and respected, and encouraged to develop personal attributes of integrity, leadership, adaptability, and mutual respect towards each other, their teachers, and the wider community.
We support our young people to become resilient, independent learners who develop a lifelong love of learning.
Each year, Braemar College achieves outstanding VCE results and these are reflected in the tertiary and career opportunities that become available to our students. |

We provide a sequential program designed to meet the academic, physical, cultural, and social needs of our students. The College’s current curriculum reflects the principles of the Australian Curriculum. Our learning focuses on the learning areas, general capabilities, and cross-curriculum priorities.
Our program offers diverse subject selection as students move through the College and we place priority on trying to ensure students receive their first choices and are given every opportunity to explore their interests and acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to pursue their chosen careers.
We also offer students the chance to complete industry-based VET training that will provide them with a range of employment opportunities within different sectors as well as opportunities to study Hospitality and Industry Music. |
