At Coorparoo Secondary College (CSC) we are actively “Creating Tomorrow Together”. This vision, emanating from our cornerstones, “Creativity, Partnerships and Environment” underpins what we teach, how we teach and even how we operate. The CSC way of teaching and learning to “Create Tomorrow Together” incorporates developing creativity through the teaching of philosophy, inquiry-based learning and extension programs. Extension programs have been successfully implemented in year 8 to tap into student’s passions as a vehicle to extend their achievement outcomes across all subjects. (Nautilus Music, Nautilus Marine, Nautilus Mathematics, Nautilus English and Nautilus Science) The College has developed partnerships with industry, community, clubs, parents, support teams, university, TAFE, primary schools, and EEC’s to develop Professional Learning Communities. We teach students to appreciate our environment via a Local to Global Perspective and Marine Positioning. CSC diligently and enthusiastically works with each student, parents and the community to deliver a dynamic, world-class secondary education. Such an offering, we recognise, is vital in empowering our students to confidently and competently seek and identify opportunities. They are also better positioned to positively manage the challenges they are bound to face in both their personal and professional lives in the future through insight and the application of skills acquired. 2011 has seen the completion of an extensive building program which has provided state-of-the-art, world class, flexible, learning environments in the following new centres: Science, Arts/Multimedia, Technology/ Hospitality, Library, Electronic Learning Areas and Canteen and includes a totally wireless environment. Students of CSC are fortunate to enjoy amongst the very best physical facilities of any school in the state. These provide an environment in which our diverse population is given every opportunity to thrive amidst the challenges presented in the 21st Century..
