About Us

(from old site)

Noble Park English Language School, in the Southern Metropolitan Region, is a P to 10, multi-campus, co-educational school with an overall enrolment of approximately 600 students. The school provides an intensive English language course for newly arrived migrants, refugees and international students from non-English speaking backgrounds. The students are also introduced to the Victorian education system and are assisted with settlement in Australia. Many students have been displaced by war, economic hardship or political persecution. Our school is committed to assisting students to regain trust in people and systems and to develop self-esteem and the confidence required to face the challenges in a new country.

A broad range of educational opportunities are available to all students. The school curriculum encourages our culturally and linguistically diverse students to become independent, life-long learners, with explicit teaching and programs tailored for individual student needs at the core of all learning. Our staff provide a secure and caring learning environment and strive for excellence in teaching and learning. We are committed to embedding the core values of Respect, Learning, Responsibility and Safety across the school community.

The school operates across 4 campuses. Noble Park and Casey cater for both primary and secondary students whilst Springvale and Stonnington Glen Eira cater solely for primary students. In 2011, we established a new open learning area at the Noble Park campus where students experience collaborative learning.
